26 - new function: AnyEvent::postpone. 31 - new functions: AnyEvent::postpone, AnyEvent::log.
32 - new module: AnyEvent::Log, for simple logging needs.
33 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_SHELL, to automatically start
34 a debug shell.
35 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_DEBUG_WRAP, to automatically enable
36 watcher instrumentation/wrapping (see AnyEvent::Debug::wrap).
37 - lots of new AnyEvent::Debug functionality.
38 - AnyEvent::Strict now checks for modifications $_ by the callback

42 - resolve AnyEvent::Util::guard at first-use-time, not at load time,
43 for further speed and memory savings when not used.

60 - add tests for all supported event loops, conditional on PERL_ANYEVENT_LOOP_TESTS.
61 - add t/80_ssltext.t.
62 - no longer use AUTOLOAD for the initial loading (for no very good reason).
63 - tcp_server now tries to unlink unix domain sockets when it gets destroyed.
64 - do not run event loop detection multiple times when programs call their cached
65 copies of AnyEvent::detect.
66 - parse_hostport now accepts absolute paths als unix domain sockets.
