4TODO: "internals mode" 4TODO: destroy gets only called on cancel: fix(?)
5TODO: "use defaults for everything" 5TODO: should explore PerlIO::via::CoroCede and PerlIO::via::CoroAIO.
6TODO: maybe implement a default message channel, very much like Erlang
7 (which is cool in a lot of important aspects (failures!),
8 but very lacking in others).

103.7
11 - added Coro::Semaphore::adjust.
12 - added Coro::Util::fork_eval.
13 - incompatibly changed Coro::Storable::freeze.
14 - added Coro::Storable::{nfreeze,blocking_{freeze,nfreeze}}.
15 - added Coro::Debug, interactive coroutine debugging.
16
173.63 Wed May 16 14:10:06 CEST 2007
18 - implement handcoded assembly for x86/amd64 SVR ABI.
19
203.62 Fri Apr 27 21:36:06 CEST 2007
21 - upgrade libcoro (which might set unwind info correctly).
22 - change default on linux to setjmp/longjmp.
23
243.61 Thu Apr 19 12:36:18 CEST 2007
25 - Coro::Storable caused an endless loop when thawing invalid
26 pst's sometimes.
27 - use a Semaphore in Coro::Storable, as Storable doesn't
28 seem to be reentrant (although it is documented to
29 be threadsafe...).
30 - fix Coro::Signal to bring back the original unreliable
31 but stateful semantics.
32 - fixed a lot of typos in Coro.pm (patch submitted by David
33 Steinbrunner, which applied flawlessly).
34
353.6 Sat Apr 14 17:13:31 CEST 2007
36 - added some bugfixes to get eg/myhttpd working again.
37 - added Coro::Storable for often-cede'ing freeze/thaw.
38 - try to do a clean exit when a coroutine calls exit
39 (EXPERIMENTAL).
40 - got rid of indirect call through _coro_init.
41 - updated the partly antique examples in eg/ to
42 work again and be a bit less magic, too.
43 - fixed Coro::Signal semantics to work as documented again.
44
453.55 Sun Mar 25 01:20:47 CET 2007
46 - add SAVE_DEFFH to save the default filehandle and enable
47 it by default.
48 - finally move socket-operations from Coro::Socket to Coro::Handle
49 to be able to unblock foreign sockets.
50 - add Coro::State::save_also and guarded_save.
51 - add count accessor to Coro::Semaphore.
52 - add Coro::State::cctx_stacksize.
53 - just for the fun of it, do not rely on implicit context,
54 which can dramatically improve performance, but people
55 using windows-process-emulation perls do not care much about
56 performance.
57
583.51 Sun Mar 4 14:18:04 CET 2007
59 - fixed a problem when you weakened references to Coro::State's
60 (patch by Yuval Kogman).
61
623.501 Wed Feb 28 12:44:07 CET 2007
63 - rename some global symbols as macosx from hell redefines
64 them without asking.
65
663.5 Tue Feb 13 20:22:53 CET 2007
67 - do AnyEvent model detection earlier, avoiding problems
68 caused by first using AnyEvent and later Coro::Event.
69 - implement and document Coro::Event event objects.
70 - fix a potential problem in Coro::Event causing crashes.
71 - initialise PL_comppad when creating a new coroutine,
72 avoids crashes on early coro destruction.
73
743.41 Mon Jan 22 19:19:49 CET 2007
75 - readline on Coro::Handle did not support undefined $/,
76 nor did it deliver partial lines on EOF or error.
77 - implement malloc fallback for stack allocation because
78 stupid broken idiotic OSX has a stupid broken
79 idiotic fits-the-whole-os mmap "implementation" and
80 my dick feels longer if Coro is portable even to
81 obsolete platforms.
82
833.4 Fri Jan 19 21:52:54 CET 2007
84 - remove t/09_timer.t, as it isn't really testing much
85 but was rather flaky in practise.
86 - async_pool coro would keep arguments and callback alive until
87 it was reused.
88 - cancellation of a coroutine could cause spurious idle calls
89 in cede_notself.
90
913.3 Sat Jan 6 03:45:00 CET 2007
92 - implement $coro->on_destroy.
93 - Coro::Event blocking semantics have been changed,
94 documented and - hopefully - improved.
95 - fix nice adding, not subtracting, from priority.
96 - fix ->prio and api_is_ready (patch by Mark Hinds).
97 - fixed an assert ("... == prev__cctx->idle_te")
98 that could errronously trigger.
99 - fix various large and small memleaks.
100 - use a (hopefully) more stable cancel implementation
101 that immediately frees the coroutine data.
102 - cede/cede_notself return a status now.
103 - added Coro::guard function.
104 - added a global coroutine pool for jobs (on my machine,
105 I can create and execute 48k simple coros/s with async,
106 and 128k coros with async_pool).
107 - Coro::AIO now uses the coroutine priority as io priority.
108
1093.2 Fri Dec 22 05:07:09 CET 2006
7 - improve portability to slightly older perls. 110 - improve portability to slightly older perls.
8 - use cleaner coroutine destruction. 111 - use cleaner coroutine destruction.
112 - simplify configuration for users.
113 - optionally (unrecommended) prefer perl functions over
114 their coro replacements.
