7 - documented Rocco fabricating statements about AnyEvent and me.
8 - the default logging level was not properly documented in a variety of
9 places, this has hopefully been rectified.
10 - updated uts46data.pl for unicode 6.1.0.
11 - made log messages genearted by AnyEvent submodules not
12 include the package name anymore, as it will be logged
13 by default already.

156.14 Tue Jan 31 20:00:24 CET 2012
16 - AnyEvent::Impl::Tk was broken due to a mysterious "die" inside,
17 probably an editing mistake (reported by Darin McBride).
18
196.13 Thu Jan 12 07:27:01 CET 2012
20 - AnyEvent::Util::fork_call checked for POSIX availability in the wrong way,
21 causing it to fail if POSIX wasn't loaded already (analysed by Rock Power).
22 - AnyEvent::Handle::push_read (line => did pass $1 directly, so
23 regex-matching inside the callback would change the parameter, despite
24 $1 being dynamically scoped per-block. this perl bug is now being
25 worked around (testcase by Cindy Wang).
26
276.12 Mon Dec 12 13:21:10 CET 2011
28 - $! was clobbered by subsequent calls in tcp_connect, due to
29 the postpone not saving/restoring it (analyzed by Richard Garnish).
30
316.11 Tue Nov 22 10:36:05 CET 2011
32 - Tk cannot create windows when tainted unless you set a title, so
33 set a dummy title for AnyEvent's dummy mainwindow. How dummy.
34 - escape any nonprintable/nonascii characters when stringifying
35 backtraces.
36 - log the reason loading an interface module fails to load at level debug.

386.1 Tue Oct 4 19:44:30 CEST 2011
39 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "4" (error
40 and above), and some messages inside AnyEvent have been elevated
41 to higher log levels to print by default.
42 - AnyEvent::log, unlike AnyEvent::Log::log, did not always exit on fatal.
43 - work around yet another signal race bug, newly introduced by POE. My
44 how that module sucks.
45 - add google public ipv6 dns as fallback servers, so AE::DNS can finally
46 support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead
47 of 127.0.0.1).
48 - give better guidelines on how to chose a logging level.
49 - AnyEvent::Log can now cap (limit) log message priority by context.
50 - AE::log will now save and restore $! and $@, so callers don't have to.
51 - AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular
52 intervals.
53 - skip frequently called 'require' calls if the module appears loaded.
54 - increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx,
55 which can't be bothered with basic posix functionality such as signal
56 delivery.
57 - mention some debugging aids in the tutorial.
58 - new env variable PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY.
59 - private (%namespace) log contexts in PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG now have the name
60 of the context as title.
61 - AnyEvent::Strict would not restore read-write access to $_ when a callback
62 died - this is a user bug, but since AE::Strict exists to help dbeugging...
63 - detect the extremely evil IO::Async::Loop::AnyEvent module and refuse
64 to work with it - the author is well aware of the issues but refuses
65 to fix them. This extreme step has been taken because the module actively
66 attacks the goals of AnyEvent and makes it harder for module authors to use
67 AnyEvent.

41 watcher instrumentation/wrapping (see AnyEvent::Debug::wrap). 105 watcher instrumentation/wrapping (see AnyEvent::Debug::wrap).
42 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_HOSTS, to override the place where 106 - new env variable, PERL_ANYEVENT_HOSTS, to override the place where
43 F</etc/hosts> can be found. 107 /etc/hosts can be found.
44 - an empty PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF now selects the default 108 - an empty PERL_ANYEVENT_RESOLV_CONF now selects the default
45 configuration. 109 configuration.

47 PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz, subject to some rules. 111 PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz, subject to some rules.
