3TODO: implement getprotobyname
4 - ignore possible spurious wake-ups.

64.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
7 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
8 callbacks.
9 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
10 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
11 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
12 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
13 Event::Lib.
14 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
15 to rarely fail.

174.81 Thu Jul 9 10:30:30 CEST 2009
18 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
19 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
20 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
21 in AnyEvent->io.
22 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
23 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
24 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
25 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
26 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
27 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
28 portable_socketpair.
29 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
30 YMMV.

324.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
33 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
34 uppercase targets.
35 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
36 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
37 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
38 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
39 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
40 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
41 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
42 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
43 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
44 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
45 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
46 in the common case.
47 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
48 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
49 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
50 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
51 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
52 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
53 from the constructor.
54 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
55 then fall back to JSON.
56 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
57 and because it was documented that way.
58
594.451 Fri Jul 3 00:28:58 CEST 2009
60 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
61 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
62
634.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
64 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
65 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
66 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
67 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
68 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
69 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
70 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
71 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
72 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
73
744.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
75 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
76 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
77 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
78 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
79 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
80
814.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
82 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
83 and set it on the default resolver.
84 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
85 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
86 when running in tainted mode.
87 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
88
894.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
90 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
91
924.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
93 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
94 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
95 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
96 destructors.
97 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
98 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
99 implementation.
100 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
101 for cosmetic reasons.
102
1034.4 Sun Apr 26 20:12:33 CEST 2009
104 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
105 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
106 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
107 - sped up Tk timer handling.
108 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
109 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
110 - fix Qt timers without interval.
111 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.

4 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers. 114 - fix AnyEvent::Strict error messages for child watchers.
5 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions. 115 - fix/update Makefile.PL "recommends" versions.
6 - add AnyEvent->now_update. 116 - add AnyEvent->now_update.
