5TODO: AE::logger
6TODO: add debug/trace logging to some modules
7TODO: general log level "cap"
8 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "4" (error
9 and above), and some messages inside AnyEvent have been elevated
10 to higher log levels to print by default.
11 - AnyEvent::log, unlike AnyEvent::Log::log, did not always exit on fatal.
12 - work around yet another signal race bug, newly introduced by POE. My
13 how that module sucks.
14 - add google public ipv6 dns as fallback servers, so AE::DNS can finally
15 support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead
16 of 127.0.0.1).
17 - give better guidelines on how to chose a logging level.
18 - AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular
19 intervals.
20 - skip frequently called 'require' calls if the module appears loaded.
21 - increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx,
22 which can't be bothered with basic posix functionality such as signal
23 delivery.
24 - mention some debugging aids in the tutorial.
25 - new env variable PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY.
26 - detect the extremely evil IO::Async::Loop::AnyEvent module and refuse
27 to work with it - the author is well aware of the issues but refuses
28 to fix them. This extreme step has been taken because the module actively
29 attacks the goals of AnyEvent and makes it harder for module authors to use
30 AnyEvent.
