4 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
5 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
6 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
7 this trap.
8 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
9 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
10 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
11 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
12 on_read callbacks.
13 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.

16 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
17 callbacks.
18 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
19 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
20 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
21 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
22 Event::Lib.
23 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
24 to rarely fail.

27 - AnyEvent::Handle didn't properly diagnose write errors
28 (it expected -1 from syswrite, how lame... :).
29 - support file descriptors in addition to file handles
30 in AnyEvent->io.
31 - new env variables: PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF,
32 PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_OUTSTANDING_DNS, PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_FILE
33 and PERL_ANYEVENT_CA_PATH.
34 - provide a sensible synopsis section for AnyEvent::TLS.
35 - add a "supported backends" section to the manpage.
36 - added simple io watcher test to testsuite, using a
37 portable_socketpair.
38 - tried to improve the stability of the Event::Lib backend,
39 YMMV.

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

69 - do not clear rbuf when shutting down an AnyEvent::Handle
70 object - doing so breaks AnyEvent::HTTP.
71
724.45 Mon Jun 29 22:59:26 CEST 2009
73 - a write error could cause AnyEvent::Handle to create
74 an I/O watcher with an undefined $fh.
75 - special-case mapped ipv4 addresses in both
76 AnyEvent::Socket::format_address and parse_address,
77 to treat them just like ipv4 addresses.
78 - updated and overhauled the AnyEvent::Intro doc.
79 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::format_ipv4/ipv6.
80 - slightly speed up portable_pipe/socketpair.
81 - expand condvar begin/end documentation.

3 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async. 84 - preliminary and neccesarily incomplete support for IO::Async.
4 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in 85 - reset SIGCHLD to DEFAULT when AnyEvent is loaded, in
5 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses 86 case it was set to IGNORE, to ensure we can catch child statuses
6 even when the calling env acts stupidly. 87 even when the calling env acts stupidly.
7 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well. 88 - updated benchmarks with IO::Async, which performs very well.
