3TODO: perl idle 3 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
4 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
5 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
6 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
7 Event::Lib.
8 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
9 to rarely fail.

12 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
13 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
14 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
15 in AnyEvent->io.
16 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
17 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
18 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
19 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
20 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
21 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
22 portable_socketpair.
23 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
24 YMMV.

27 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
28 uppercase targets.
29 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
30 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
31 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
32 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context
33 creation, with many options including hostname verification,
34 secure default configuration, lots of documentation and,
35 predefined diffie-hellman keys for perfect forward security
36 and much more. get it while it's still fresh!
37 - use AnyEvent::TLS in AnyEvent::Handle for context management.
38 - load AnyEvent::Handle only on demand in AnyEvent::DNS,
39 so AnyEvent::Socket users have smaller memory footprint
40 in the common case.
41 - add AnyEvent::Handle->push_shutdown method.
42 - add an additional error message parameter to AnyEvent::Handle's
43 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
44 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
45 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction
46 failures (during new), and return C<undef> in that case
47 from the constructor.
48 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,
49 then fall back to JSON.
50 - format_ipv4/format_ipv6 are now exported by default, for symmetry,
51 and because it was documented that way.
52

54 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
55 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
56
574.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
58 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
59 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
60 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
61 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
62 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
63 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
64 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
65 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
66 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.
67
684.42 Fri Jun 26 08:32:18 CEST 2009
69 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
70 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
71 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
72 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
73 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
74
754.412 Wed Jun 24 01:35:57 CEST 2009
76 - support an "untaint" attribute for AnyEvent::DNS
77 and set it on the default resolver.
78 - implement and document AnyEvent::Impl::Perl::loop.
79 - remove all anyevent-env variables from %ENV
80 when running in tainted mode.
81 - mention and extend the IO::Lambda benchmark.
82
834.411 Sun Jun 7 18:48:02 CEST 2009
84 - do not try to use F_SETFD on windows.
85
864.41 Thu May 14 06:40:11 CEST 2009
87 - work around issues in older perls (5.8.0?) when
88 a signal handler is deleted from the %SIG hash.
89 - use POSIX::_exit in child test, to avoid running
90 destructors.
91 - speed up CHLD handling by relying on SIGCHLD being
92 synchronously delivered, even when we roll our own
93 implementation.
94 - AnyEvent::DNS: add the "dname" resource record name
95 for cosmetic reasons.

4TODO: - implemented idle watchers, where applicable. 98 - implemented idle watchers, where applicable.
5 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use. 99 - AnyEvent->time died when Event backend was in use.
6 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend. 100 - fix a memleak in the Tk backend.
7 - sped up Tk timer handling. 101 - sped up Tk timer handling.
102 - clip negative "after" values to 0 in AnyEvent::Impl::Event
103 to avoid spamming out warning messages.
8 - fix Qt timers without interval. 104 - fix Qt timers without interval.
105 - avoid Qt zero-timeout special case, in old libqt's.
