81.9 (never properly released due to a glitch)
9
101.8 Thu Feb 2 00:59:06 CET 2006
11 - applied suggested patch by SAMV to avoid problems during stupid
12 mark & sweep gc run.
13 - applied patch by Scott Walters for 5.9.3 compatibility.
14
151.7 Tue Dec 27 01:41:58 CET 2005

17 - improved Makefile.PL explanations.
18
191.6 Mon Dec 12 21:30:05 CET 2005
20 - additionally save PM_curpm might fix as-of-yet
21 unseen problems with regex matches being attributed to the
22 wrong package.
23 - add t/10_bugs.t, which currently checks against imho broken
24 perls that use 0.26MB of stack space per Perl_magic_get
25 invocation (newer linuxes) as opposed to the 0.0002MB perl
26 normally uses.
27 - make stacksize configurable for the ultimate debian experience.
28
291.51 Mon Dec 12 18:48:36 CET 2005
30 - remove debugging warn() accidentally left in Coro::Select.
31
321.5 Tue Nov 29 13:32:44 CET 2005
33 - use Coro::Event inside Coro::Select to avoid spurious deadlocks.
34 - fix Coro::Select 'select'.
35 - strict'ify some modules.
36 - libcoro errornously restored the SIGUSR2 handler to SIGUSR1.
37 - use XSLoader in selected modules.
38 - remove some 5.6 compatibility cruft.
39
401.4 Tue Sep 6 00:11:05 CEST 2005
41 - libcoro did not take into account the trampoline on amd64,
42 when 'l'inux method was used.
43
441.31 Tue Aug 30 23:31:33 CEST 2005
45 - some portability fixes/workarounds.
46
471.3 Sat Aug 20 03:08:56 CEST 2005
48 - no code changes. module seems to work fine.
49 - improve Coro::State docs, remove reference to nonexisting
50 Coro::State::flush method.
51 - no longer autodetect windows, present it as an option instead.
52
531.2 Mon May 16 02:00:55 CEST 2005
54 - included libcoro.c earlier in State.xs, might improve portability.
55 - use a faster and possibly more stable Coro::Cont implementation.
56 - accept x86_64 in addition to amd64 for optimized linux-amd64 support.
57 - fix bugs Coro::SemaphoreSet that could cause locks never to be freed.
58 - fix bugs in CoroAPI.h and document it in Coro::MakeMaker.
59
601.11 Thu Mar 3 18:00:52 CET 2005
61 - change of contact address.
62
631.1 Tue Feb 22 20:51:16 CET 2005
64 - support [l]inux method on amd64.
65 - allow some context switches while compiling/eval'ing.
66
671.0 Tue Aug 10 03:47:27 CEST 2004
68 - Event 0.89 fixes the bug again.
69 - fix the remaining(??) memleak. I didn't free the cache-AV for
70 padlists, so one AV per created anon-sub leaked.
71
720.97 Fri May 14 15:23:32 CEST 2004
73 - remove stupid gcc extension that was an experiment only anyway.
74
750.96 Thu May 13 18:09:29 CEST 2004
76 - tell people if they have yet another broken Event variant.
77 - made Coro to work _better_ with threads (it seems that, as long
78 as you use Coros in one thread only everything will work fine.
79 Looking at the perl source the problem might be missing locking
80 between Coro and some perl internal routines. That's not easily
81 fixable).
82 - (hopefully) got rid of the static xnext inside transfer.
83
840.95 Sun Feb 15 03:20:28 CET 2004
85 - removed Coro::State::flush, implemented a new and much
86 faster caching mechanism by attaching magic to the CV.
87 - a memleak with (real) closures remains.
88 - dramatically reduced size of stacks to 65536 (linux/x86), after
89 observing that even myhttpd never had more than a kilobyte
90 of stack in use (stack is still only physically allocated in
91 pagesize increments for systems suporting mmap).
92 - fix for a "cygwin-64" architecture added, proposed by Stefan Traby.
93 - fix for threaded perl.
94
950.9 Sun Nov 23 04:32:39 CET 2003
96 - fix a few very hard to track down but (of course) stupid
97 memory leaks.
98 - stringify version number to avoid locale problems :(.
99 - perl 5.9.0 does not have SvPADBUSY, reported by Scott Walters,
100 hopefully ignoring it "just works".
101
1020.8 Wed Nov 5 19:38:40 CET 2003
103 - port to perl5.005_03, but only 5.8.x+ is supported!
104 - honor LocalAddr even without LocalPort in Coro::Socket.
105
1060.7 Tue May 27 03:12:38 CEST 2003
107 - the version jump indicates some level of testing, not gobs
108 of new features.
109 - uh... I found the prompt function in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
110 Highly correct stuff, that is...
111 - fixed(?) a bug with die's in coroutines causing "panic: top_env".
112 the fix is not well understood by the author, so beware :(.
113
1140.652 Thu May 8 02:54:46 CEST 2003
115 - Applied patch by Slaven Rezic to set default to "s" on FreeBSD,
116 cause version 4 doesn't have ucontext.
117 - Benjamin Reed reported that setjmp works fine on darwin,
118 so preselect it.
119
1200.651 Sat Mar 29 15:00:23 CET 2003
121 - fix a bug in Coro::Handle where some bytes could get lost
122 on reading, reported by jason@nichego.net.
123
1240.65 Sun Mar 23 00:08:26 CET 2003
125 - added a README.linux-glibc.
126 - new module Coro::Select.
127 - also save/restore PL_comppad, fixes segfaults with 5.8.1.
128 (I never claimed that I know what I am doing ;).
129 - set default to setjmp/longjmp on non-x86-linux.
130
1310.6 Thu Nov 21 11:09:06 CET 2002
132 - made lazy context switching the default.
133 - fixed the bug where SemaphoreSet::guard
134 was the same as timed_guard and timed_guard was missing.
135 - fix a memleak in Coro::Timer.
136 - reclassified context sharing as not experimental.
137
1380.534 Sun Apr 14 03:05:12 CEST 2002
139 - fixed backspace => tab in header parsing (myhttpd).
140 - added eg/readline, for elmex.
141 - Coro::Event now calls ->start on first call instead of
142 ->again, which created wrong timeouts for the first ->next.
143 - fixed a bug where Coro::Socket returned a closed socket instead
144 of nothing on ECONNREFUSED and similar error conditions.
145
1460.533 Mon Feb 18 18:49:40 CET 2002
147 - adapt to finally working Event-0.85.
148 - fixed buggy event initialization (trapped under windows, but how
149 could it possibly have worked anywhere?)
150
1510.532 Wed Jan 16 02:45:32 CET 2002
152 - removed the reference to pp_entersub, might work on
153 (some) win32 perls now (testsuite works under cygwin,
154 without Event, which freezes).
155
1560.531 Mon Dec 10 22:18:44 CET 2001
157 - Fixed a bug in SemaphoreSet::timed_down.
158
1590.53 Tue Nov 27 21:11:13 CET 2001
160 - some tests for Event.
161 - slightly different internal architecture to get refcnt into the object
162 and not the reference. might fix a few bugs, certainly did introduce
163 new ones.
164 - Coro::Timer (independent of Event).
165 - new timed_wait functions for Coro::Signal, Semaphore, SemaphoreSet.
166
1670.52 Tue Nov 6 21:36:18 CET 2001
168 - ported to cygwin (trivial).
169 patch by Gerrit P. Haase <gp@familiehaase.de>.
170 - small setjmp code fix by Sullivan.DanielJ@epamail.epa.gov.
171
1720.51 Thu Nov 1 20:39:01 CET 2001
173 - terminate/cancel now work properly (otherwise termination
174 could cause a "next coroutine is not and contains not..."
175 error.
176 - added Coro::Socket::shutdown.
177 - Coro::Event::loop no is the same as Event::loop.
178 - implemented terminate with args + join.
179
1800.5 Fri Sep 28 16:15:35 CEST 2001
181 - fixed "print" on a Coro::Handle. The print method worked.
182 - small tweaks (seem to reduce memory consumption a lot)
183 in various modules.
184 - splendid use of "no warnings" scattered throughout.
185 - added Coro::Handle::rbuf, fixed Coro::Handle::fh.
186
1870.49 Sun Sep 16 02:42:45 CEST 2001
188 - changed some method calls to function calls for speed
189 inside Coro::Handle.
190 - make Coro::Handle use an array instead of a hash for
191 speed reasons.
192 - IRIX mystery solved: it's SGI's NT, after all: "standard, huh?".
193 sjlj and ucontext should now work.
194 - IRIX-specific port for libcoro.
195 - swapped order of accept results to match IO::Socket.
196 - changed getsock/peername to sock/peername to match IO::Socket.
197 - fixed a bug that caused segfault when returning to main task
198 under some circumstances.
199 - other bugfixes.

4 - new method Coro::Handle::timeout. 202 - new method Coro::Handle::timeout.
5 - corrected speling of set...name to get...name in Coro::Socket. 203 - corrected speling of set...name to get...name in Coro::Socket.
6 - Coro::Socket::accept now returns a Coro::Socket, not a Coro::Handle. 204 - Coro::Socket::accept now returns a Coro::Socket, not a Coro::Handle.
