16 - added cbor read and write types to AnyEvent::Handle (using CBOR::XS).
17 - calling AnyEvent->now_update with AnyEvent::Impl::Perl caused an
18 endless loop (reported by Dietrich Rebmann).
19 - add tlsv1_1 and tlsv1_2 protocols to AnyEvent::TLS
20 (patch by Maxime Soulé).
21 - force a toplevel domain name in t/81_hosts.t (analyzed by
22 David Jack Wange Olrik).
23 - document that AnyEvent::Log uses AnyEvent::IO.
24 - time for an =encoding directive.
25
267.05 Wed Aug 21 10:38:08 CEST 2013
27 - uts46data.pl couldn't be found due to wrong naming of the file
28 (reported by Fulko Hew).
29 - handle lone \015's properly in AE::Handle's default line read
30 (reported by various people).
31 - untaint ip addresses found in /etc/hosts (patch by José Micó).
32 - the memleak fix in 7.03 caused resolving via /etc/hosts to always
33 fail on first use (reported and testcase by Andrew Whatson).
34 - expose AnyEvent::Log::format_time, and allow users to redefine it.
35 - expose AnyEvent::Log::default_format, and allow redefinition.
36 - expose AnyEvent::Log::fatal_exit, to allow redefinition.
37 - AnyEvent::Debug shell can now run coro shell commands, if available.
38 - t/63* tests were wrongly in MANIFEST.
39 - kernel.org's finger server went MIA, switch to freebsd.org and
40 icculus.org.
41 - clarify that IO::AIO and AnyEvent::AIO are needed for AnyEvent::IO
42 to function asynchronously (reported by Daniel Carosone).
43 - hard-disable $^W in most tests, it generates too much garbage output.
44 - use a (hopefully) more future-proof method to emulate common::sense.
45 - upgrade to UTS-46:6.2.0.
46 - switch to INSTLIB from INSTLIBDIR, as INSTLIBDIR was wrongly
47 documented. should not affect anything.
48
497.04 Thu Nov 15 02:23:58 CET 2012
50 - debugging code left in.
51
527.03 Thu Nov 15 02:16:11 CET 2012
53 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton did not work when dns resolution was
54 used to find the addresses (analyzed and patch by Maxime Soulé).
55 - fix a memory leak in the /etc/hosts lookup code when hosts don't
56 resolve and are not in hosts (analyzed by sten).
57
587.02 Tue Aug 14 04:27:58 CEST 2012
59 - AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd could block indefinitely (analyzed and test
60 program by Yorhel).
61 - verified that AnyEvent::Socket follows RFC5952.
62 - try to parse "ADDR#PORT" in addition to "ADDR PORT".
63
647.01 Sun May 13 01:03:17 CEST 2012
65 - fail with EPROTO in AnyEvent::Handle wqhen TLS is requested but
66 not available, instead of throwing an exception.
67 - use File::Spec to get the tmpdir in t/*, to avoid needless
68 failures on (most, not mine :) windows boxes.
69 - new handle read types: tls_detect and tls_autostart.
70
717.0 Fri Apr 13 06:33:30 CEST 2012
72 - child watchers are broken in POE 1.352 (also many earlier
73 versions) and there seems to be no way to work around it, as POE
74 itself is inherently racy. Document this regression and add a delay
75 in t/68_poe_03_child.t for the time being.
76 - new module AnyEvent::IO, that is a frontend to either a pure-perl
77 synchronous I/O implementation (AnyEvent::IO::Perl), or to the
78 asynchronous I/O extension IO::AIO (AnyEvent::IO::IOAIO).
79 - load /etc/hosts only when DNS has no answer.
80 - stat /etc/hosts on every access and reload it if it changed.
81 - load /etc/hosts via AnyEvent::IO - potentially asynchronous.
82 - fix a buggy croak in the dh parameter reading in AnyEvent::TLS.
83 - AnyEvent::Log log_to_file and log_to_path now use AnyEvent::IO. As
84 a side effect, they now use true appending as opposed to libc
85 appending, and the file might not have been opened when the function
86 returns.
87 - the default logging level was not properly documented in a variety of
88 places, this has hopefully been rectified.
89 - updated uts46data.pl for unicode 6.1.0.
90 - made log messages generated by AnyEvent submodules not
91 include the package name anymore, as it will be logged
92 by default already.
93 - upgrade to the trick used by common-sense 3.5 to work
94 around extra warning torture/breakage under perl 5.15.x.
95 - log messages by anyevent are now ucfirst, are usually full
96 sentences and do no longer include the package name.
97 - the storable read type would sometimes throw an exception instead
98 of causing EBADMSG (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
99 - work around a bug in openssl 1.0.1 which enforces a minimum rsa
100 keysize (reported by Paul Howarth).
101 - documented Rocco fabricating statements about AnyEvent and me.
102
1036.14 Tue Jan 31 20:00:24 CET 2012
104 - AnyEvent::Impl::Tk was broken due to a mysterious "die" inside,
105 probably an editing mistake (reported by Darin McBride).
106
1076.13 Thu Jan 12 07:27:01 CET 2012
108 - AnyEvent::Util::fork_call checked for POSIX availability in the wrong way,
109 causing it to fail if POSIX wasn't loaded already (analysed by Rock Power).
110 - AnyEvent::Handle::push_read (line => did pass $1 directly, so
111 regex-matching inside the callback would change the parameter, despite
112 $1 being dynamically scoped per-block. this perl bug is now being
113 worked around (testcase by Cindy Wang).
114
1156.12 Mon Dec 12 13:21:10 CET 2011
116 - $! was clobbered by subsequent calls in tcp_connect, due to
117 the postpone not saving/restoring it (analyzed by Richard Garnish).
118
1196.11 Tue Nov 22 10:36:05 CET 2011
120 - Tk cannot create windows when tainted unless you set a title, so
121 set a dummy title for AnyEvent's dummy mainwindow. How dummy.
122 - escape any nonprintable/nonascii characters when stringifying
123 backtraces.
124 - log the reason loading an interface module fails to load at level debug.

148 of the context as title.
149 - AnyEvent::Strict would not restore read-write access to $_ when a callback
