11 - deprecate Coro::Socket, document how to get ipv6 support via
12 AnyEvent::Socket instead.
13 - implement signal->wait ($cb) interface, similar to semaphores.
14 - work around SvOK not supporting getmagic, so we have to getmagic
15 to test for undef :/ (reported by Matthias Waldorf).
16 - load Coro::AnyEvent in all modules using AnyEvent.

185.14 Wed Jun 24 01:37:48 CEST 2009
19 - provide explicit functions to "cede" to the event loop in Coro::AnyEvent,
20 as this seems to have been a difficult concept (poll, sleep, idle,
21 idle_upto).
22 - add Coro::AnyEvent::readable/writable functions.
23 - clarify Coro::EV/Event/AnyEvent manpages.
24 - free per-thread global scalars in the thread calling ->cancel, to
25 avoid crashes when $_, $@ etc., are magical but some of those
26 had already been freed.
27 - "unexperimentalise" the callback interface for Coro::Semaphore.
28 - speed up ready queue management/context switching by using a linked
29 list instead of an array (~5-10%).
30 - implement "watch" command in Coro::Debug shells.
31 - for fun, implement time-slicing as an example in the manpage.
32 - if AnyEvent detects EV or Event, but we don't have Coro::EV or
33 Coro::Event, use the normal AnyEvent handling instead of dieing
34 (the same is true for Coro::Handle).
35 - properly document Coro::EV::timed_io_once.
36 - avoid unneccessary ->cancel calls in Coro::Handle.
37 - maybe make it work on mingw32 with win32 backend
38 (based on patch by Yasuhiro Matsumoto).
39
405.132 Fri May 29 09:00:39 CEST 2009
41 - do not keep a reference to the argument itself in
42 Coro::Semaphore::guard, as it could change later.
43 - support SO_RCVBUF/SO_SNDBUF nonstandard Coro::Socket options,
44 should support a prepare callback.
45
465.131 Mon Mar 16 23:20:37 CET 2009
47 - implement and document Coro->suspend, Coro->resume.
48 - fix Coro::Select implementation to not (often) close
49 the passed file descriptors (testcase provided by pippijn).
50
515.13 Mon Dec 15 21:51:42 CET 2008
52 - EXPERIMENTAL: implement dynamic winds (on_enter/on_leave).
53 - don't set diehook to C<undef> but instead to NULL, to avoid
54 spurious warnings.
55 - fix a lot of bugs in Coro::SemaphoreSet.
56 - Coro::SemaphoreSet will less often create a semaphore needlessly.
57 - add Coro::SemaphoreSet::count and wait methods.
58 - take advantage of the new Guard module.
59 - deprecate Coro::guard.
60 - try to fix the dreaded 01_unblock tests once more. I hate it when
61 testsuites need more fixing than the code they are supposed to test.
62 - croak in more cases when a required callback isn't resolvable.
63 - fix some minor issues in Coro::State->call/eval.
64 - use current coroutine context instead of a temporary one
65 when temporarily switching to another coroutine.
66 - do not call C-level on_destroy handlers during global destruction,
67 to avoid needless segfaults.
68
695.12 Sun Dec 7 13:30:38 CET 2008
70 - add default config for MirOS, which seems to be a bug-to-bug
71 compatible fork of openbsd ("world domination by releasing
72 openbsd cvs before the openbsd folks do it" or so :).
73 - free_padlist did destroy the names pad, not good, but didn't
74 seem to bother perl - this could fix issues such as eval ""
75 inside a function called from multiple coroutines.
76 - use a different method to detect destruction time.
77 - be more careful when freeing padlists just before global
78 destruction.
79 - fixed and expanded the call/cc example.
80 - renamed _terminate to _coro_run.
81 - new method Coro::Channel->shutdown.
82 - try pthreads on openbsd <4.4 (broken sigaltstack, will
83 pthreads fare better?).
84 - be less picky about destroying "a" running coroutine.
