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).

103.8
11 - incompatibly changed Coro::Storable::freeze.
12 - major new feature: added Coro::Debug, for interactive coroutine
13 debugging, tracing and much more.
14 - added Coro::Semaphore::adjust.
15 - added Coro::Util::fork_eval.
16 - added Coro::Storable::{nfreeze,blocking_{freeze,nfreeze}}.
17 - reduce initial stack sizes to allow for "micro-coroutines".
18 - better async_pool resource management, moved parts of async_pool
19 handling to XS (major speed improvement).
20 - many minor tweaks.
21
223.63 Wed May 16 14:10:06 CEST 2007
23 - implement handcoded assembly for x86/amd64 SVR ABI.
24
253.62 Fri Apr 27 21:36:06 CEST 2007
26 - upgrade libcoro (which might set unwind info correctly).
27 - change default on linux to setjmp/longjmp.
28
293.61 Thu Apr 19 12:36:18 CEST 2007
30 - Coro::Storable caused an endless loop when thawing invalid
31 pst's sometimes.
32 - use a Semaphore in Coro::Storable, as Storable doesn't
33 seem to be reentrant (although it is documented to
34 be threadsafe...).
35 - fix Coro::Signal to bring back the original unreliable
36 but stateful semantics.
37 - fixed a lot of typos in Coro.pm (patch submitted by David
38 Steinbrunner, which applied flawlessly).
39
403.6 Sat Apr 14 17:13:31 CEST 2007
41 - added some bugfixes to get eg/myhttpd working again.
42 - added Coro::Storable for often-cede'ing freeze/thaw.
43 - try to do a clean exit when a coroutine calls exit
44 (EXPERIMENTAL).
45 - got rid of indirect call through _coro_init.
46 - updated the partly antique examples in eg/ to
47 work again and be a bit less magic, too.
48 - fixed Coro::Signal semantics to work as documented again.
49
503.55 Sun Mar 25 01:20:47 CET 2007
51 - add SAVE_DEFFH to save the default filehandle and enable
52 it by default.
53 - finally move socket-operations from Coro::Socket to Coro::Handle
54 to be able to unblock foreign sockets.
55 - add Coro::State::save_also and guarded_save.
56 - add count accessor to Coro::Semaphore.
57 - add Coro::State::cctx_stacksize.
58 - just for the fun of it, do not rely on implicit context,
59 which can dramatically improve performance, but people
60 using windows-process-emulation perls do not care much about
61 performance.
62
633.51 Sun Mar 4 14:18:04 CET 2007
64 - fixed a problem when you weakened references to Coro::State's
65 (patch by Yuval Kogman).
66
673.501 Wed Feb 28 12:44:07 CET 2007
68 - rename some global symbols as macosx from hell redefines
69 them without asking.
70
713.5 Tue Feb 13 20:22:53 CET 2007
72 - do AnyEvent model detection earlier, avoiding problems
73 caused by first using AnyEvent and later Coro::Event.
74 - implement and document Coro::Event event objects.
75 - fix a potential problem in Coro::Event causing crashes.
76 - initialise PL_comppad when creating a new coroutine,
77 avoids crashes on early coro destruction.
78
793.41 Mon Jan 22 19:19:49 CET 2007
80 - readline on Coro::Handle did not support undefined $/,
81 nor did it deliver partial lines on EOF or error.
82 - implement malloc fallback for stack allocation because
83 stupid broken idiotic OSX has a stupid broken
84 idiotic fits-the-whole-os mmap "implementation" and
85 my dick feels longer if Coro is portable even to
86 obsolete platforms.
87
883.4 Fri Jan 19 21:52:54 CET 2007
89 - remove t/09_timer.t, as it isn't really testing much
90 but was rather flaky in practise.
91 - async_pool coro would keep arguments and callback alive until
92 it was reused.
93 - cancellation of a coroutine could cause spurious idle calls
94 in cede_notself.
5 95
63.3 Sat Jan 6 03:45:00 CET 2007 963.3 Sat Jan 6 03:45:00 CET 2007
7 - implement $coro->on_destroy. 97 - implement $coro->on_destroy.
8 - Coro::Event blocking semantics have been changed, 98 - Coro::Event blocking semantics have been changed,
9 documented and - hopefully - improved. 99 documented and - hopefully - improved.
