12 - uts46data.pl couldn't be found due to wrong naming of the file
13 (reported by Fulko Hew).
14 - AnyEvent::Debug shell can now run coro shell commands, if
15 available.
16 - t/63* tests were wrongly in MANIFEST.
17 - mention IO::AIO as optional dependency.
18 - kernel.org's finger server went MIA, switch to freebsd.org.

21 - debugging code left in.
22
237.03 Thu Nov 15 02:16:11 CET 2012
24 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton did not work when dns resolution was
25 used to find the addresses (analyzed and patch by Maxime Soulé).
26 - fix a memory leak in the /etc/hosts lookup code when hosts don't
27 resolve and are not in hosts (analyzed by sten).
28
297.02 Tue Aug 14 04:27:58 CEST 2012
30 - AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd could block indefinitely (analyzed and test
31 program by Yorhel).
32 - verified that AnyEvent::Socket follows RFC5952.
33 - try to parse "ADDR#PORT" in addition to "ADDR PORT".
34
357.01 Sun May 13 01:03:17 CEST 2012
36 - fail with EPROTO in AnyEvent::Handle wqhen TLS is requested but
37 not available, instead of throwing an exception.
38 - use File::Spec to get the tmpdir in t/*, to avoid needless
39 failures on (most, not mine :) windows boxes.
40 - new handle read types: tls_detect and tls_autostart.
41
427.0 Fri Apr 13 06:33:30 CEST 2012
43 - child watchers are broken in POE 1.352 (also many earlier
44 versions) and there seems to be no way to work around it, as POE
45 itself is inherently racy. Document this regression and add a delay
46 in t/68_poe_03_child.t for the time being.
47 - new module AnyEvent::IO, that is a frontend to either a pure-perl
48 synchronous I/O implementation (AnyEvent::IO::Perl), or to the
49 asynchronous I/O extension IO::AIO (AnyEvent::IO::IOAIO).
50 - load /etc/hosts only when DNS has no answer.
51 - stat /etc/hosts on every access and reload it if it changed.
52 - load /etc/hosts via AnyEvent::IO - potentially asynchronous.
53 - fix a buggy croak in the dh parameter reading in AnyEvent::TLS.
54 - AnyEvent::Log log_to_file and log_to_path now use AnyEvent::IO. As
55 a side effect, they now use true appending as opposed to libc
56 appending, and the file might not have been opened when the function
57 returns.
58 - the default logging level was not properly documented in a variety of
59 places, this has hopefully been rectified.
60 - updated uts46data.pl for unicode 6.1.0.
61 - made log messages generated by AnyEvent submodules not
62 include the package name anymore, as it will be logged
63 by default already.
64 - upgrade to the trick used by common-sense 3.5 to work
65 around extra warning torture/breakage under perl 5.15.x.
66 - log messages by anyevent are now ucfirst, are usually full
67 sentences and do no longer include the package name.
68 - the storable read type would sometimes throw an exception instead
69 of causing EBADMSG (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
70 - work around a bug in openssl 1.0.1 which enforces a minimum rsa
71 keysize (reported by Paul Howarth).
72 - documented Rocco fabricating statements about AnyEvent and me.
73
746.14 Tue Jan 31 20:00:24 CET 2012
75 - AnyEvent::Impl::Tk was broken due to a mysterious "die" inside,
76 probably an editing mistake (reported by Darin McBride).
77
786.13 Thu Jan 12 07:27:01 CET 2012
79 - AnyEvent::Util::fork_call checked for POSIX availability in the wrong way,
80 causing it to fail if POSIX wasn't loaded already (analysed by Rock Power).
81 - AnyEvent::Handle::push_read (line => did pass $1 directly, so
82 regex-matching inside the callback would change the parameter, despite
83 $1 being dynamically scoped per-block. this perl bug is now being
84 worked around (testcase by Cindy Wang).
85
866.12 Mon Dec 12 13:21:10 CET 2011
87 - $! was clobbered by subsequent calls in tcp_connect, due to
88 the postpone not saving/restoring it (analyzed by Richard Garnish).
89
906.11 Tue Nov 22 10:36:05 CET 2011
91 - Tk cannot create windows when tainted unless you set a title, so
92 set a dummy title for AnyEvent's dummy mainwindow. How dummy.
93 - escape any nonprintable/nonascii characters when stringifying
94 backtraces.
95 - log the reason loading an interface module fails to load at level debug.
