3ZERO_RETURN - stoptls? 34.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
4 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
5 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
6 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
7 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
8 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
9 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
10 in IO::ASync.

13 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
14 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
15 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
16 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
17 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
18 documentation.
19 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
20 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
21 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
22 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
23 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
24 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.

264.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
27 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
28 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
29 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
30 this trap.
31 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
32 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
33 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
34 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
35 on_read callbacks.
36 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
37
384.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
39 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
40 callbacks.
41 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
42 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
43 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
44 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
45 Event::Lib.
46 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
47 to rarely fail.

494.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
50 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
51 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
52 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
53 in AnyEvent->io.
54 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
55 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
56 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
57 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
58 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
59 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
60 portable_socketpair.
61 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
62 YMMV.

4 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with 65 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
5 uppercase targets. 66 uppercase targets.
67 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
68 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
69 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
6 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context 70 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context

15 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method. 79 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
16 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's 80 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
17 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available). 81 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
82 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.

88 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
