3TODO: check wether stack-sharing is still effective 3TODO: better (earlier) error messages on broken transfer's
4TODO: more effective stack sharing by having one "default stack" for "simple" coroutines?

53.
6 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: $/ is now per-coroutine.
7 - incompatible change: transfer flags are now per-state.
8 - give a better error message on deadlock.
9 - document Coro::nready.
10 - enhanced testsuite.

16 - the "FINALLY COMPLETELY STABLE" release (coming soon:
17 the "FAMOUS LAST WORDS" release).
7 - reimplement a new stack sharing algorithm. 18 - implement a new stack sharing algorithm, which uses a stack
19 pool (size currently hardcoded).
8 - make stack sharing mandatory (it no longer uses a heuristic). 20 - make stack sharing mandatory (it no longer uses a heuristic).
9 - eval/die no longer cause weird problems under heavy use. 21 - eval/die no longer cause weird problems under heavy use.
10 - Coro::Event could cause livelocks if it was used but 22 - Coro::Event could cause livelocks if it was used but
11 Event watchers were used directly. 23 no Coro::Event watchers were used.
24 - Coro::Event now uses asynccheck as prepare does not
25 check for changed watchers.
26 - Coro::Event allows multiple waiting coros and will wake up one
27 per event.
12 - Coro::Event should be cleaner and more efficient now. 28 - Coro::Event should be cleaner and more efficient now.
29 - new utility function Coro::unblock_sub.
30 - document the sad fact that Event is no longer reentrant.
31 - putting a coroutine into the ready queue twice could under
32 some circumstances lead to stack corruption.
13 - minor incompatibility: subclassing is supported directly now 33 - minor incompatibility: subclassing Coro::State is supported
14 without going through a _coro_state member. 34 directly now without going through a _coro_state member.
15 - state/coro switching is much faster now. 35 - state/coro switching is much faster now.
16 - very minor optimisations and code/documentation cleanup. 36 - very minor optimisations and code/documentation cleanup.
17 - avoid problems due to compiler inlining. 37 - avoid problems due to compiler inlining.
18 - removed timers from Coro::Timer -> use AnyEvent instead. 38 - removed timers from Coro::Timer -> use AnyEvent instead.
19 - replaced Coro::idle coroutine by (cleaner) idle handler. 39 - replaced Coro::idle coroutine by (cleaner) idle handler.
20 - updated to newest libcoro. 40 - updated to newest libcoro.
41 - implement enhanced support for valgrind.
42 - implement is_ready and return value for ready.
43 - removed Coro::Cont, it was a misnomer (it's generators),
44 and it was somewhat annoying to get it right. Will come back
45 if somebody asks for it :)
46 - many ->wait methods and Coro::Event could return
47 spuriously without the event having happened.

23 - made Coro::Util, Coro::Select, Coro::Handle and Coro::Socket 50 - made Coro::Util, Coro::Select, Coro::Handle and Coro::Socket
