4 - lowering the timeout at runtime did not have immediate effect
5 in AnyEvent::Handle.
6 - AE::Handle now has separate and independent read and write timeout
7 settings.
8 - probe for Guard module when AnyEvent::Util is loaded, not at
9 runtime (Event doesn't like eval "use" from callbacks, and it avoids
10 exporting the probe function).
11 - Impl::IOAsync's io watchers did not use the filehandle emulation
12 code to work around it's watcher limits.
13 - work around IO::Async's problems with overloaded objects.
14 - try to disable wearnings inside IO::Async, it's just too buggy.
15 - do no longer use Event by default, only EV or Perl, Event is too buggy.
16 - hackishly provide fast AE:: interface when EV is the backend.
17 - inherit VERSION from AnyEvent::VERSION in most modules.

20 - AE::Handle::starttls could get out of sync when the read buffer
21 already contains some TLS handshake.
22 - AE::Handle did not properly free the TLS session, causing bigger
23 memory leaks in Net::SSLeay than expected (reported by toaster).
24 - AE::Socket::tcp_connect will now artificially delay invoking
25 the callback to avoid returning after invoking the callback.
26 - convert many internal watcher uses to AE API.
27
284.9 Sat Aug 1 11:07:01 CEST 2009
29 - Glib silently fails when registering a timeout with
30 a negative value, so avoid that.
31 - call condvar callback immediately when it is set
32 after the condition is already signalled.
33 - check rbuf_max condition only after trying to consume
34 data.
35 - normalise signal numbers to names when using the ae's
36 signal handling, but do not document this (yet).
37 - pure perl signal emulation did not properly set nonblocking
38 mode on the signal pipe on win32 (this is unlikely to have caused
39 any issues).
40 - new module: AnyEvent::Debug.
41 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks that a signal was specified
42 by name (not name or number).
43 - reduce memory footprint in typical cases by ~50kb by
44 only compiling signal code when necessary.
45 - add AnyEvent::Handle->rbuf_max.
46 - grab the AE namespace for future new API, implement stubs for
47 said future/alternative API.
48 - new function: AnyEvent::Socket::format_hostport.

504.881 Tue Jul 28 12:51:53 CEST 2009
51 - work around a bug in local in pre-5.10 perls, causing
52 AnyEvent::Handle to recurse when it should not
53 (analyzed by elmex).
54
554.88 Tue Jul 28 04:04:37 CEST 2009
56 - re-bless the handle into a dummy package after calling
57 AnyEvent::Handle::destroy, so the user does not need to check
58 for errors after every push_write etc.
59 - do not attempt to run t/02_signals.t on obviously broken
60 platforms.
61
624.87 Sun Jul 26 02:06:16 CEST 2009
63 - do not attempt to linger when there is no longer a valid fh.
64 - enforce tls mode to be either accept or connect, do not simply
65 segfault in Net::SSLeay.
66 - AnyEvent::Handle can now call tcp_connect itself (new parameters
67 connect, on_prepare, on_connect and on_connect_error). Updated
68 tutorial accordingly.
69 - add AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi backend.
70
714.86 Mon Jul 20 23:52:29 CEST 2009
72 - since the verbose warning is not enough, explicitly document
73 that versions before 1.33 of Net::SSLeay are not secure.
74 - work around signal handling races in Event and (...) Event::Lib.
75 - try to align signal-race timer to full-second boundaries.
76 - work around Tk not liking negative timeouts.
77 - don't complain of different grades of environmental unfriendlyness
78 in IO::Async.
79
804.85 Sat Jul 18 06:16:14 CEST 2009
81 - nail the signal race problem in perl once and for all
82 (see $AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY).
83 - take advantage of Async::Interrupt if it is available.
84 - load Time::HiRes and Guard modules on demand only.
85 - add optional/recommended modules section to AnyEvent
86 documentation.
87 - reduce memory usage considerably (and reduce startup penalty)
88 by not using "strict", "warnings" and "overload" modules.
89 - work around buggy windows/openbsd perls and provide EBADMSG
90 and EPROTO ourselves when missing.
91 - improve perl 5.6 compatibility of the core event loop.
92 - made Net::SSLeay version 1.33 a soft requirement.
93
944.83 Fri Jul 17 16:56:26 CEST 2009
95 - implement AnyEvent::Socket::getprotobyname.
96 - AnyEvent::CondVar's will now detect recursive blocking
97 waits and will croak, as too many people fall into
98 this trap.
99 - AnyEvent::Handle will now call ->destroy on itself after
100 executing the on_error callback, instead of doing some
101 half-baked internal shutdown, for fatal errors.
102 - clarify on_eof behaviour w.r.t. the read queue and
103 on_read callbacks.
104 - ignore some possible spurious wake-ups in tcp_connect.
105
1064.82 Sat Jul 11 00:34:55 CEST 2009
107 - POE and Event backends didn't accept some callable objects as
108 callbacks.
109 - use Config module instead of POSIX module to detect signal names
110 in AnyEvent::Strict and AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib, as the POSIX
111 module doesn't even have all POSIX signals :/.
112 - use more workarounds around the many refcnt/corruption bugs in
113 Event::Lib.
114 - work around a race condition in perl's select, causing t/03_child.t
115 to rarely fail.
