6TODO: trace-per-watcher AnyEvent::Debug 7 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "4" (error
7TODO: logging during AnyEvent::detect 8 and above), and some messages inside AnyEvent have been elevated
8TODO: AnyEvent::Filesys::Notify 9 to higher log levels to print by default.
9TODO: maybe study log4perl and see how they could interface? 10 - AnyEvent::log, unlike AnyEvent::Log::log, did not always exit on fatal.
10TODO: ae::now vs. ae::time - make configurable? 11 - work around yet another signal race bug, newly introduced by POE. My
11TODO: AE_VERBOSE=8 mt 12 how that module sucks.
126.01 13 - add google public ipv6 dns as fallback servers, so AE::DNS can finally
14 support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead
15 of 127.0.0.1).
16 - give better guidelines on how to chose a logging level.
17 - AnyEvent::Log can now cap (limit) log message priority by context.
18 - AE::log will now save and restore $! and $@, so callers don't have to.
19 - AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular
20 intervals.
21 - skip frequently called 'require' calls if the module appears loaded.
22 - increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx,
23 which can't be bothered with basic posix functionality such as signal
24 delivery.
25 - mention some debugging aids in the tutorial.
26 - new env variable PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY.
27 - private (%namespace) log contexts in PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG now have the name
28 of the context as title.
29 - AnyEvent::Strict would not restore read-write access to $_ when a callback
30 died - this is a user bug, but since AE::Strict exists to help dbeugging...
31 - detect the extremely evil IO::Async::Loop::AnyEvent module and refuse
32 to work with it - the author is well aware of the issues but refuses
33 to fix them. This extreme step has been taken because the module actively
34 attacks the goals of AnyEvent and makes it harder for module authors to use
35 AnyEvent.

38 - log_to_syslog now accepts facility strings.
39 - log_to_syslog would not allow facilities - "$facility|$level"
40 *literally* means that string. sheesh.
41 - the CPAN parser got confused and thought we provide Sys::Syslog, try
42 to work around.
43 - renamed AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2 to FLTK.
