3 - fix a bug in the pure perl backend that kept watchers alive
4 when multiple watchers were registered for the same fh/poll combo.
5 - add a benchmark section showing AnyEvent overhead and comparing
6 the different event loops with each other.
7 - prefer pure perl over tk when autoprobing, as it's about as fast,
8 but doesn't crash with many watchers.
9 - make Qt support non-experimental.
10 - clarify the confusing section about the file descriptor being
11 kept alive.
12 - document the race between loading of an event module and
13 child processes exiting.
14 - support POE as "backend" (with some caveats, POE is not generic
15 enough, and darn slow).
16 - support Wx and Prima through POE.
17 - optimise perl backend a bit (less memory).

22 for the same fh/poll combo).
23 - support autoloading for child watchers, was broken in all versions.
3 - implement PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL env variable. 24 - implement PERL_ANYEVENT_MODEL env variable.
4 - implement interface to the (very crashy/buggy) Event::Lib module. 25 - (experimental) implement interface to the (very crashy/buggy) Event::Lib module.
5 - tried to implement an interface to Qt, but perl-Qt is in a 26 - (experimental) implement interface to the Qt module (cannot be autoprobed).
6 totally broken state (Qt::app returns an invalid object, memory 27 - this release is IO:AnyEvent-proof.
7 corruption ensues etc.)
