9 - wrote a small introductory tutorial - Coro::Intro.
10 - convert Coro::Timer, Coro::Select and Coro::Util to rouse API.
11 - Coro::Select did errornously dup the file descriptors
12 and didn't work with all AnyEvent backends.
13 - Coro::Select wasn't imported correctly form Coro::LWP, causing blocking
14 LWP data transfers.
15 - disassociate c contexts from coro objects - this is agruably more
16 correct, but mostly allows sharing of cctxs between coro and state
17 objects, for added memory savings and speed increases.
18 - bumped $Coro::POOL_RSS up to 32kb by default.
19 - no longer set the optype to OP_CUSTOM, as B::* understandably
20 doesn't like this very much (and we *are* a type of entersub).
21 - implement state cloning, just to prove that call/cc can be done.
22 - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent in Coro::Handle.
23 - wrap ->cancel calls in eval inside Coro::Handle as EV watchers
24 do not have this method (and don't need it either).
25 - speed up generic anyevent methods in Coro::Handle by using rouse
26 callbacks.
27 - allow coroutines in $Coro::IDLE, speeding up Coro::AnyEvent and
28 others. It also makes the debugger happier, as you can trace
29 through the idle threads now.
30 - add comppad_name* and hints ($^H, %^H) to per-thread variables.
31 - eg/event was pretty broken.
32 - better 5.8.6 compatibility.
