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