 Revision history for Perl extension Coro.
 
 TODO: should explore PerlIO::coroaio (perl leaks like hell).
-TODO: maybe implement a default message channel, very much like Erlang's
-      actor model (which is cool in a lot of important aspects (failures!),
-      but very lacking in others (higher level ipc)).
-TODO: unready_all
-TODO: myhttpd header parsing
 TODO: channel->maxsize(newsize)?
+TODO: http://www.microsoft.com/msj/archive/s2ce.aspx

+TODO: tutorial
+	- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: unreferenced coro objects will now be
+          destroyed and cleaned up automatically (e.g. async { schedule }).
+        - Coro::State->is_destroyed is now called is_zombie.
+        - implement a Coro->safe_cancel method that might fail, but
+          cancels in a "safer" way if it succeeds.
+        - get rid of two hash-accesses when initialising a new Coro - this
+          speeds up coro creation by almost a factor of two.
+        - croak when a coro that is being cancelled tries to block
+          (e.g. while executing a guard block), instead of crashing or
+          deadlocking.
+        - use a more robust and also faster method to identify Coro::State
+          objects - speeds up everything a bit.
+	- implement Coro->cancel in XS for a 20% speed improvement, and to
+          be able to implement mutual cancellation.
+	- speed up context switches by a percent or two by more efficiently
+          allocating context stack entries.
+        - implement Coro->join and Coro->on_destroy in XS for a speedup and
+          a reduction in memory use.
+        - cancelling a coro while it itself is cancelling another coro is
+          now supported and working, instead of triggering an assertion.
+	- be a bit more crash-resistant when calling (buggy) on_destroy
+          callbacks (best effort).
+        - move on_destroy into the slf_frame, to allow extension slf
+          functions to have destructors.
+        - get rid if coro refcounting - simply crash in other interpreter
+          threads by nulling the pointers on clone.
+        - simplify warn/die hook handling when loading Coro - the convoluted
+          logic seems to be no longer neccessary.
+
+5.372 Wed Feb 23 06:14:30 CET 2011
+	- apparently mingw doesn't provide a working gettimeofday, try to
+          work around that by relying on Time::HiRes (indirectly brought to
+          my attention by Max Maischein).
+        - fix some portability issues when Time::HiRes was used.
+
+5.371 Mon Feb 21 14:36:08 CET 2011
+	- backport to windows process emulation code again.
+
+5.37  Sat Feb 19 07:49:44 CET 2011
+	- add a big "Coro thread life cycle" section to "man Coro".
+	- try a tentative workaround against the breakage that 5.13 has
+          introduced without depreciation period. sigh.
+        - no longer use Time::HiRes if gettimeofday is available, which
+          saves quite a lot of memory.
+
+5.36  Sun Feb 13 05:33:41 CET 2011
+	- automatically load Coro::Channel, Coro::RWLock, Coro::Semaphore,
+          Coro::SemaphoreSet, Coro::Signal and Coro::Specific on first "new"
+          method call.
+        - undocument Coro::Timer::sleep and obsolete whole module.
+        - optimise Coro::Timer::timeout memory and cpu usage.
+        - slightly updated Coro::Intro for recent changes.
+        - do not initialise PL_dirty anymore.
+
+5.25  Thu Nov 11 01:08:39 CET 2010
+	- try a different approach on netbsd - netbsd 5 finally has marginally
+          working pthreads, but still broken ucontext/sigaltstack.
+        - openbsd 4.8 finally got their act together, Coro works out of the box
+          with asm, setjmp and pthreads (no change, just informational).
+
+5.24  Sat Oct 23 11:27:12 CEST 2010
+	- port to the EV 4.0 API.
+	- work around bugs in mingw32, making strawberry perl work
+          out of the box.
+	- correctly modify Coro::AIO function prototypes
+          so that they reflect the "no optional parameters" rule.
+	- "ported" libcoro to C++.
+
+5.23  Mon May 17 18:50:42 CEST 2010
+	- be more resistant to ordering changes when initialising
+          Coro::AnyEvent, Coro::EV and Coro::Event (reported by Matthias
+          Waldorf).
+	- document that perl 5.12 deliberately removed support for cloning.
+
+5.22  Wed Apr 14 03:55:35 CEST 2010
+	- correctly return udnef on errors in Coro::Handle::read/write
+          (testcase by Marc Mims).
+	- convert Coro::Util into a "perl compatibility wrapper" - the functions
+          are less useful now, but are drop-in replacements for existing
+          functions, listing better alternatives in the documentation. This also
+          fixes a bug in Coro::LWP which naively substituted Socket::inet_aton
+          with Coro::Util::inet_aton.
+        - do not override $Coro::idle unconditionally in Coro.pm, as other
+          modules could have provided their own idle coro already
+          (for exmaple, Coro::AnyEvent).
+	- fix Coro::Util::gethost* functions.
+        - Coro::Timer corretcly exports it's symbols (reported by Hideki Yamamura).
+
+5.21  Wed Dec 16 07:19:51 CET 2009
+        - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent when AnyEvent and Coro are used
+          together.
+        - add some examples on how to combine other event loops with Coro in
+          Coro::AnyEvent, and how to run it (and not to block). Seems to be
+          the most common source of confusion.
+        - try to catch people naively blocking in an event callback.
+        - work around the perl filehandle bug issue in conjunction with
+          older common::sense (as indirectly pointed out by ZSystem).
+	- clarify the "not from signal handlers" section.
 
 5.2   Sun Oct  4 14:54:24 CEST 2009
         - Coro::Storable destroyed the prototypes of the functions it wrapped.
