        - minor improvements in documentation and trace output.

2.02 Sun Jul 29 04:22:53 CEST 2018
        - hardcode version in MP.pm to help the CPAN indexer.

2.01 Tue Jul 24 09:02:34 CEST 2018
        - try to work around a race condition that we can't identify
          (patch suggested by Sadrak).

2.0  Tue Jul 24 08:52:26 CEST 2018
        - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the node protocol used by this version is not
          compatible to versions <2 - you have to upgrade all nodes.
        - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many APIs have changed, see the section
          "PORTING FROM VERSION 1" in the AnyEvent::MP manpage for details.
        - AnyEvent::MP::Global is now optional - only seed nodes autoload it
          and create a fully-meshed network with each other, normal nodes only
          have to connect to seed nodes, other connections are on-demand.
        - remove md6 auth algorithms (and use algorithms based on SHA3 instead).
        - implement CBOR framing and make it the preferred format.
        - new "norc" and "force" options for MP::configure to ignore
          or override the rc file.
        - a shitload of minor and major fixes all reported and debugged
          by Felix Ostmann.
        - move seed code to Kernel.
        - non-json receive framing was probably broken.
        - fixed small typo in MP::Transport.
        - fix (unused) provider-kv (version sometimes missing).
        - reduce the default export list of MP::Kernel.
        - reduced various random delays to zero, as they
          are hopefully no longer needed with the new global
          protocol.
        - implement a secure mode that can suppress (some) code execution
          requests.
        - do not use GMP for generating alphanumeric strings even when
          available, use a more tricky algorithm instead.
        - anonymous node names and remote port names have been shortened
          considerably.
        - $AnyEvent::MP::Kernel::SRCNODE contains the node ID of the origin
          node during message receives.
        - aemp shell now supports "package" selection and offers an
          $ECHO port you can send messages to.
        - rely on perl rand() instead of using /dev/urandom when available, as
          hopefully it is random enough.
        - aemp shell no longer leaks one port per command.
        - nodenames can contain %-escapes such as %n or %u.
        - aemp now uses aemp/%n/%u as nodename.
        - configure supports "eval", a small perl snippet to initialsie a node,
          most useful in "aemp run eval ...".
        - known_nodes is gone, it has little value, use all_nodes as
          replacement.
        - lots of small change and improvements.
        - node_is_known has been removed.
        - TRACE now shows the portid on SND.
        - aggressively reduce number of external modules, to reduce
          memory usage for nodes.
        - rework most of the documentation.
        - clean up MP::Kernel exports.
        - include AnyEvent::MP in AnyEvent::MP::Kernel's @CARP_NOT to
          hopefully improve error messages.

1.30 Thu Jun 30 11:30:39 CEST 2011
        - connection errors at the right time would kill node
          connections in a bad way (patch by Malcolm Studd).

1.29 Fri May  7 20:13:39 CEST 2010
        - codename "Sadrak".
        - fix error in callback at AnyEvent/MP/Global.pm line 339
          (found by Sadrak).
        - listener-less nodes had trouble sending keepalive
          messages on write timeouts (found by Sadrak).
        - the monitor guard could cause a memleak due
          to autovivification if a mon was cleared after
          the port was gone (analysed by Sadrak).
        - do not overwrite the config file if we couldn't read it
          for some reason (lesson demonstrated by Sadrak).

1.28 Thu Apr  1 21:23:54 CEST 2010
        - accepted connections didn't correctly set up the SRCNODE
          in some cases, leading to intra-node messages (such as monitoring)
          to fail silently (great testcase by Sadrak).

1.27 Sat Mar 20 21:11:16 CET 2010
        - avoid exceptions in the transport code if the connection
          fails during TLS negotiation.
        - delay new address broadcasts in seednodes, to reduce the
          likelyhood of nodes connecting at the same time, leading to
          message loss.
        - improve general message passing efficiency by 8%, and special
          case json framing for a 50% speed increase.
        - add hints how to interface to aemp nodes from other programming
          languages using the aemp protocol in AnyEvent::MP::Transport
          (it can really be quite simple).
        - handle unsupported remote framings more gracefully.

1.26 Wed Dec 30 16:48:37 CET 2009
        - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the high-level node protocol changed,
          all nodes need to upgrade.
        - remote kil's did not work (reported by Eugene Grigoriev).
        - documented monitor_timeout, connect_interval, auth_offer,
          auth_accept, framing_format, autocork and nodelay options
          and make them configurable via bin/aemp.
        - some doc updates.
        - remote kil's were not synchronous to message sends which affected
          nobody, as remote kils were broken.
        - remote mon/unmonitor requests were not synchronous to message
          sends either sometimes, although it likely didnt matter.

1.24 Wed Dec  9 14:59:52 CET 2009
        - codename "the foul egg".
        - increased "unmonitored local port died" message level to 2, so
          it is displayed by default now.
        - generate random seed at configure time, not module loading time,
          so fork&configure works as expected.
        - decreased "seed"-related message priority in Global from 0 (d'oh)
          to 9, as they are not signifcant.
        - new experimental module AnyEvent::MP::DataConn to establish
          additional data connections between nodes.
        - bin/aemp now loads AnyEvent::Watchdog::Util before trying
          to call restart.
        - bin/aemp setcert didn't properly handle the filename argument.
        - removed empty and unused timeout= parameter from protocol greeting.

1.23 Fri Nov  6 18:46:26 CET 2009
        - listener-less nodes were misinformed by their masters about
          the location of new nodes, and therefore didn't connect
          properly in all cases.
        - messages send during node-up processing could sometimes get lost,
          which would hamper global's ability to mesh the network.
        - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Global::grp_reg to return a guard also
          in scalar context.
        - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Kernel::mon_nodes to return a guard also
          in scalar context.
        - try to improve error reporting when automatically loading
          a function - being unable to load a module will now
          stop the process and report the error.

1.22 Sat Oct 17 03:41:47 CEST 2009
        - fix two rcv-bugs: after adding a tagged rcv, the default
          callback would not be used or changed anymore (reported
          by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann, with apologies for
          taking so long to releae the fix).
        - added Coro::MP introduction to AnyEvent::MP::Intro.
        - add peval function.

1.21 Mon Oct  5 21:58:36 CEST 2009
        - always delay kil messages.
        - remote monitor requests were never cleaned up (found by
          Sadrak and analysed by elmex).
        - move $VERSION to AnyEvent::MP and AnyEvent::MP only.

1.2  Thu Oct  1 22:59:35 CEST 2009
        - fix a rather big bug where message processing could be
          inhibited completely.
        - grp_mon could not return a guard due to a typo.
        - implement primitive aemp shell.
        - do not use bound address as listen length (reported by
          Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostman).
        - no longer export an undefined "reg" function from AE::MP.
        - the mon_guard return value no longer keeps an additional
          reference to the passed refs.

1.1  Fri Sep 11 04:34:03 CEST 2009
        - bumped the transport protocol to version 1 - sorry, but there
          were too many bugfixes/changes.
        - new function AnyEvent::MP::cal for simple rpc.
        - renamed AnyEvent::MP::Global functions to grp_reg|get|mon.
        - implemented monitoring for Global groups.
        - removed all userspace time-outs from the transport, instead
          rely on tcp retransmit timeouts and tcp keepalive.
        - spawn now delays spawns on the local node artificially, so
          it can return before invoking the init function.
        - break endless recursion between ping-pong ports on the local
          node after ~50 iterations.
        - support JSON-encoded aemp arguments.
        - added aemp restart.
        - support for starting init functions with parameters added.
        - data_format, auth_offer and auth_accept are now configurable, albeit
          not documented.
        - new service: AnyEvent::MP::LogCatcher.
        - rely on perl srand'ing better than we could.
        - try to backport to 5.8.2, unfortunately, recursive dependencies
          rely on Module::Build, which fails at 5.8.7, so YMMV.
        - use a vastly different reseeding strategy.
        - use seed nodes to notify nodes about new nodes.
        - in the case where a ndoe learns new addresses after it tried
          connecting, prefer the new addrseses over the old ones.

1.0  Wed Sep  2 20:40:43 CEST 2009
        - randomise more connection times, but reduce delay to 0.2s (seeds)
          and 0.05s (normal connects).
        - upgrade to and require AnyEvent::Watchdog 1.0.

0.95 Mon Aug 31 22:03:55 CEST 2009
        - tutorial finally covers all the basics, maybe not optimally, but it
          is covered.
        - rename initialise_node to configure and accepts key => value
          pairs for configuration.
        - give aemp a full manpage.
        - bin/aemp now expects comma-separated lists and supports multiple
          subcommands.
        - new aemp eval subcommand.
        - new aemp parent subcommand.
        - nodes get freed when no longer needed.
        - support "*" hostname to specify all local interface addresses
          (without localhost etc.).
        - support "*" port to specify a dynamically-assigned port (which
          is the default now).
        - fix per-transport memory leak.

0.9  Sat Aug 29 18:47:45 CEST 2009
        - tutorial was updated to reflect the current API, but
          does not touch monitoring yet.
        - got rid of noderefs and slave nodes entirely, introduce
          free-text node identifiers and anonymous nodes.
        - document security issues with tls_anon method and introduce
          optional tls_md6_64_256 method.

0.8  Wed Aug 19 07:54:50 CEST 2009
        - added AnyEvent::MP::Global service.
        - support "package::" names as service names.
        - many, many, many bugfixes and tweaks.

0.7  Sat Aug 15 01:18:51 CEST 2009
        - sorry, another major API simplification.
        - greatly improved aemp configuration abilities.
        - introduced profile management.
        - updated exmaples in eg/.
        - added Kernel::snd_to_func.

0.6  Thu Aug 13 03:15:05 CEST 2009
        - do away with .aemp-secret and use .perl-anyevent-mp as json config
          file.
        - introduce bin/aemp to configure nodes.
        - too many changes to describe.

0.4  Sun Aug  9 18:05:49 CEST 2009
        - API should now be really stable :)
        - distinguish between resolved and unresolved noderefs.
        - certificates in .aemp-secret are now supported.
        - change port creation semantics.
        - replace become_xxx by initialise_node.
        - implement AE::MP::spawn.
        - implement transport timeouts, monitoring, reconnecting.
        - simplify and partially document the transport protocol.

0.1  Tue Aug  4 23:07:11 CEST 2009
        - AnyEvent::MP API should be mostly stable by now.

0.02 Sun Aug  2 17:46:43 CEST 2009
        - design has stabilised a bit, sitll unusable.

0.01 Sat Aug  1 11:43:31 CEST 2009
        - dummy upload to reserve namespace on CPAN.

0.0  Thu Jul 30 06:10:15 CEST 2009
        - original version, an AnyEvent::AIO clone.

138	root	1.89	- generate random seed at configure time, not module loading time,
139			so fork&configure works as expected.
140	root	1.88	- decreased "seed"-related message priority in Global from 0 (d'oh)
141			to 9, as they are not signifcant.
142	root	1.85	- new experimental module AnyEvent::MP::DataConn to establish
143			additional data connections between nodes.
144	root	1.84	- bin/aemp now loads AnyEvent::Watchdog::Util before trying
145			to call restart.

149	root	1.82	1.23 Fri Nov 6 18:46:26 CET 2009
150	root	1.80	- listener-less nodes were misinformed by their masters about
151			the location of new nodes, and therefore didn't connect
152			properly in all cases.
153	root	1.81	- messages send during node-up processing could sometimes get lost,
154			which would hamper global's ability to mesh the network.
155			- fixed AnyEvent::MP::Global::grp_reg to return a guard also
156			in scalar context.
157			- fixed AnyEvent::MP::Kernel::mon_nodes to return a guard also
158			in scalar context.
159	root	1.79	- try to improve error reporting when automatically loading

161			stop the process and report the error.

163	root	1.77	1.22 Sat Oct 17 03:41:47 CEST 2009
164			- fix two rcv-bugs: after adding a tagged rcv, the default
165			callback would not be used or changed anymore (reported
166			by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann, with apologies for
167			taking so long to releae the fix).
168	root	1.76	- added Coro::MP introduction to AnyEvent::MP::Intro.
169	root	1.75	- add peval function.

176	root	1.72
177	root	1.71	1.2 Thu Oct 1 22:59:35 CEST 2009

180	root	1.65	- grp_mon could not return a guard due to a typo.
181	root	1.66	- implement primitive aemp shell.
182	root	1.67	- do not use bound address as listen length (reported by
183			Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostman).

193	root	1.63	- implemented monitoring for Global groups.
194	root	1.50	- removed all userspace time-outs from the transport, instead
195			rely on tcp retransmit timeouts and tcp keepalive.
196	root	1.48	- spawn now delays spawns on the local node artificially, so
197			it can return before invoking the init function.
198	root	1.55	- break endless recursion between ping-pong ports on the local
199			node after ~50 iterations.
200	root	1.47	- support JSON-encoded aemp arguments.
201	root	1.51	- added aemp restart.
202	root	1.52	- support for starting init functions with parameters added.
203	root	1.53	- data_format, auth_offer and auth_accept are now configurable, albeit
204			not documented.
205	root	1.54	- new service: AnyEvent::MP::LogCatcher.
206	root	1.58	- rely on perl srand'ing better than we could.
207			- try to backport to 5.8.2, unfortunately, recursive dependencies
208			rely on Module::Build, which fails at 5.8.7, so YMMV.
209			- use a vastly different reseeding strategy.
210	root	1.61	- use seed nodes to notify nodes about new nodes.
211	root	1.63	- in the case where a ndoe learns new addresses after it tried

213	root	1.46
214	root	1.45	1.0 Wed Sep 2 20:40:43 CEST 2009

218	root	1.36
219	root	1.42	0.95 Mon Aug 31 22:03:55 CEST 2009
220	root	1.43	- tutorial finally covers all the basics, maybe not optimally, but it
221			is covered.
222	root	1.38	- rename initialise_node to configure and accepts key => value
223			pairs for configuration.
224	root	1.33	- give aemp a full manpage.
