3ZERO_RETURN - stoptls? 3 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.

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

144.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
15 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
16 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
17 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
18 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
19 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
20 documentation.
21 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
22 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
23 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
24 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
25 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
26 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
27
284.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
29 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
30 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
31 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
32 this trap.
33 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
34 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
35 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
36 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
37 on_read callbacks.
38 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
39
404.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
41 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
42 callbacks.
43 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
44 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
45 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
46 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
47 Event::Lib.
48 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
49 to rarely fail.

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

664.8 Mon Jul 6 23:45:16 CEST 2009
67 - AnyEvent::DNS did not properly follow CNAME records with
68 uppercase targets.
69 - AnyEvent::DNS would errornously return AAAA records
70 with v4 mapped addresses (a faulty record) as ipv4 addresses,
71 causing AnyEvent::Socket to throw an exception.
4 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context 72 - added new module AnyEvent::TLS for easier SSL/TLS context

15 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available). 83 on_error callback (for TLS, $! is still available).
84 - add AnyEvent::Handle on_starttls/on_stoptls callbacks.
16 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction 85 - make AnyEvent::Handle more robust against early conenction

19 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first, 88 - AnyEvent::Handle will now try to load only JSON::XS first,

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