3 - reimplement a new stack sharing algorithm.
4 - make stack sharing mandatory (it no longer uses a heuristic).
5 - eval/die no longer cause weird problems under heavy use.
6 - Coro::Event could cause livelocks if it was used but
7 Event watchers were used directly.
8 - Coro::Event should be cleaner and more efficient now.
9 - minor incompatibility: subclassing is supported directly now
10 without going through a _coro_state member.
11 - state/coro switching is much faster now.
12 - very minor optimisations and code/documentation cleanup.
13 - avoid problems due to compiler inlining.
14 - removed timers from Coro::Timer -> use AnyEvent instead.
15 - replaced Coro::idle coroutine by (cleaner) idle handler.
16 - updated to newest libcoro.
17 - implement enhanced support for valgrind.

192.5 Tue Nov 7 12:22:33 CET 2006
20 - made Coro::Util, Coro::Select, Coro::Handle and Coro::Socket
21 use AnyEvent, moved them to Coro/.
22 - added Coro::LWP which contains all the uglyness required to
23 make LWP non-blocking.
24 - should work with perl 5.9.x now (Andreas König made me do it).
25 - fixed another bug in Coro::Select when the timeout was undef.
26 - reuse PL_start_env for all coros, saves some memory per coroutine.
27 - manage PL_top_env differently, hopefully to avoid panic: top_env.
28 - timeout argument was not properly used in Coro::Socket.
29 - allow limited forms of subclassing in Coro::Handle/Coro::Socket.
30 - emulate undocumented(!) functionality of IO::Socket required
31 by LWP(!!).
32 - updated eg/lwp to work with newer lwp's.
33 - remove "FATAL: uncaught exception" prefix. Coroutines that die
34 kill the whole process, just as exceptions in the main "coroutine"
35 did already.
36
372.1 Wed Nov 1 23:01:13 CET 2006
38 - fix a long-standing bug in Coro::Select where select with
39 zero timeout would instead change the current default filehandle.
40 - use a simpler and hopefully more robust way to clone padlists
41 (uses less memory and a perl function instead of our own).
42 - coro can now create a stack guard area on many architectures.
43 - Coro::AIO properly reexports additional functions from IO::AIO.
44 - updated libcoro with a workaround for OS X,
45 pach and testing by Michael Schwern.
46
472.0 Tue Oct 24 05:47:17 CEST 2006
48 - support additional aio requests in Coro::AIO.
49
501.9 (never properly released due to a glitch)
51
521.8 Thu Feb 2 00:59:06 CET 2006
53 - applied suggested patch by SAMV to avoid problems during stupid
54 mark & sweep gc run.
55 - applied patch by Scott Walters for 5.9.3 compatibility.
56
571.7 Tue Dec 27 01:41:58 CET 2005
58 - added Coro::AIO, a thin wrapper around IO::AIO.
59 - improved Makefile.PL explanations.
60
611.6 Mon Dec 12 21:30:05 CET 2005
62 - additionally save PM_curpm might fix as-of-yet
63 unseen problems with regex matches being attributed to the
64 wrong package.
65 - add t/10_bugs.t, which currently checks against imho broken
66 perls that use 0.26MB of stack space per Perl_magic_get
67 invocation (newer linuxes) as opposed to the 0.0002MB perl
68 normally uses.
69 - make stacksize configurable for the ultimate debian experience.

31.51 Mon Dec 12 18:48:36 CET 2005 711.51 Mon Dec 12 18:48:36 CET 2005
4 - remove debugging warn() accidentally left in Coro::Select. 72 - remove debugging warn() accidentally left in Coro::Select.
