10 - implement and document Coro->suspend, Coro->resume.
11 - fix Coro::Select implementation to not (often) close
12 the passed file descriptors (testcase provided by pippijn).

145.13 Mon Dec 15 21:51:42 CET 2008
15 - EXPERIMENTAL: implement dynamic winds (on_enter/on_leave).
16 - don't set diehook to C<undef> but instead to NULL, to avoid
17 spurious warnings.
18 - fix a lot of bugs in Coro::SemaphoreSet.
19 - Coro::SemaphoreSet will less often create a semaphore needlessly.
20 - add Coro::SemaphoreSet::count and wait methods.
21 - take advantage of the new Guard module.
22 - deprecate Coro::guard.
23 - try to fix the dreaded 01_unblock tests once more. I hate it when
24 testsuites need more fixing than the code they are supposed to test.
25 - croak in more cases when a required callback isn't resolvable.
26 - fix some minor issues in Coro::State->call/eval.
27 - use current coroutine context instead of a temporary one
28 when temporarily switching to another coroutine.
29 - do not call C-level on_destroy handlers during global destruction,
30 to avoid needless segfaults.
31
325.12 Sun Dec 7 13:30:38 CET 2008
33 - add default config for MirOS, which seems to be a bug-to-bug
34 compatible fork of openbsd ("world domination by releasing
35 openbsd cvs before the openbsd folks do it" or so :).
36 - free_padlist did destroy the names pad, not good, but didn't
37 seem to bother perl - this could fix issues such as eval ""
38 inside a function called from multiple coroutines.
39 - use a different method to detect destruction time.
40 - be more careful when freeing padlists just before global
41 destruction.
42 - fixed and expanded the call/cc example.
43 - renamed _terminate to _coro_run.
44 - new method Coro::Channel->shutdown.
45 - try pthreads on openbsd <4.4 (broken sigaltstack, will
46 pthreads fare better?).
47 - be less picky about destroying "a" running coroutine.

495.11 Tue Nov 25 21:49:05 CET 2008
50 - DEBUGGING in 5.10.0 is a mess: it constantly flags perfectly
51 working code with failed assertions, introducing more bugs than
52 it fixes, requiring elaborate workarounds :(

545.1 Mon Nov 24 08:54:59 CET 2008
55 - wrote a small introductory tutorial - Coro::Intro.
8 - convert Coro::Timer and Coro::Select to rouse API. 56 - convert Coro::Timer, Coro::Select and Coro::Util to rouse API.
9 - Coro::Select did errornously dup the file descriptors 57 - Coro::Select did errornously dup the file descriptors
10 and didn't work with all AnyEvent backends. 58 and didn't work with all AnyEvent backends.
59 - Coro::Select wasn't imported correctly form Coro::LWP, causing blocking
60 LWP data transfers.
61 - disassociate c contexts from coro objects - this is agruably more
62 correct, but mostly allows sharing of cctxs between coro and state
63 objects, for added memory savings and speed increases.
64 - bumped $Coro::POOL_RSS up to 32kb by default.
65 - no longer set the optype to OP_CUSTOM, as B::* understandably
66 doesn't like this very much (and we *are* a type of entersub).
67 - implement state cloning, just to prove that call/cc can be done.
68 - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent in Coro::Handle.
69 - wrap ->cancel calls in eval inside Coro::Handle as EV watchers
70 do not have this method (and don't need it either).
71 - speed up generic anyevent methods in Coro::Handle by using rouse
72 callbacks.
73 - allow coroutines in $Coro::IDLE, speeding up Coro::AnyEvent and
74 others. It also makes the debugger happier, as you can trace
75 through the idle threads now.
76 - add comppad_name* and hints ($^H, %^H) to per-thread variables.
77 - eg/event was pretty broken.
78 - better 5.8.6 compatibility.

15 - bump API version to 7 - all dependents must be recompiled. 83 - bump API version to 7 - all dependents must be recompiled.
