8 - minor tuning. 11 - Coro::AnyEvent failed to hook into the event loop
12 when no threads had been readied between detecting
13 the event loop and actually running it.
14 - considerably speed up Coro::Select by taking avdantage
15 of AnyEvent > 4.8 and some other optimisations.
16 - clarified libcoro license and copyright.
17 - someone stole my EXTRA_META!!!
18 - implement Coro::Select::patch_pp_sselect and it's brother,
19 for hardcode select overriding.

215.151 Mon Jul 6 05:41:57 CEST 2009
22 - backport to windows process emulation code again (patch by
23 Yasuhiro MATSUMOTO).
24 - slightly update Coro::MakeMaker.
25
265.15 Tue Jun 30 10:28:06 CEST 2009
27 - deprecate Coro::Socket, document how to get ipv6 support via
28 AnyEvent::Socket instead.
29 - implement signal->wait ($cb) interface, similar to semaphores.
30 - work around SvOK not supporting getmagic, so we have to getmagic
31 to test for undef :/ (reported by Matthias Waldorf).
32 - load Coro::AnyEvent in all modules using AnyEvent.
33 - work around perl corrupting our internal data structures,
34 reported by Tokuhiro Matsuno.
35 - enable per-coroutine real and cpu time gathering
36 (Coro::State::enable_times).
37
385.14 Wed Jun 24 01:37:48 CEST 2009
39 - provide explicit functions to "cede" to the event loop in Coro::AnyEvent,
40 as this seems to have been a difficult concept (poll, sleep, idle,
41 idle_upto).
42 - add Coro::AnyEvent::readable/writable functions.
43 - clarify Coro::EV/Event/AnyEvent manpages.
44 - free per-thread global scalars in the thread calling ->cancel, to
45 avoid crashes when $_, $@ etc., are magical but some of those
46 had already been freed.
47 - "unexperimentalise" the callback interface for Coro::Semaphore.
48 - speed up ready queue management/context switching by using a linked
49 list instead of an array (~5-10%).
50 - implement "watch" command in Coro::Debug shells.
51 - for fun, implement time-slicing as an example in the manpage.
52 - if AnyEvent detects EV or Event, but we don't have Coro::EV or
53 Coro::Event, use the normal AnyEvent handling instead of dieing
54 (the same is true for Coro::Handle).
55 - properly document Coro::EV::timed_io_once.
56 - avoid unneccessary ->cancel calls in Coro::Handle.
57 - maybe make it work on mingw32 with win32 backend
58 (based on patch by Yasuhiro Matsumoto).
59
605.132 Fri May 29 09:00:39 CEST 2009
61 - do not keep a reference to the argument itself in
62 Coro::Semaphore::guard, as it could change later.
63 - support SO_RCVBUF/SO_SNDBUF nonstandard Coro::Socket options,
64 should support a prepare callback.
65
665.131 Mon Mar 16 23:20:37 CET 2009
67 - implement and document Coro->suspend, Coro->resume.
68 - fix Coro::Select implementation to not (often) close
69 the passed file descriptors (testcase provided by pippijn).
70
715.13 Mon Dec 15 21:51:42 CET 2008
72 - EXPERIMENTAL: implement dynamic winds (on_enter/on_leave).
73 - don't set diehook to C<undef> but instead to NULL, to avoid
74 spurious warnings.
75 - fix a lot of bugs in Coro::SemaphoreSet.
76 - Coro::SemaphoreSet will less often create a semaphore needlessly.
77 - add Coro::SemaphoreSet::count and wait methods.
78 - take advantage of the new Guard module.
79 - deprecate Coro::guard.
80 - try to fix the dreaded 01_unblock tests once more. I hate it when
81 testsuites need more fixing than the code they are supposed to test.
82 - croak in more cases when a required callback isn't resolvable.
83 - fix some minor issues in Coro::State->call/eval.
84 - use current coroutine context instead of a temporary one
85 when temporarily switching to another coroutine.
86 - do not call C-level on_destroy handlers during global destruction,
87 to avoid needless segfaults.
88
895.12 Sun Dec 7 13:30:38 CET 2008
90 - add default config for MirOS, which seems to be a bug-to-bug
91 compatible fork of openbsd ("world domination by releasing
92 openbsd cvs before the openbsd folks do it" or so :).
93 - free_padlist did destroy the names pad, not good, but didn't
94 seem to bother perl - this could fix issues such as eval ""
95 inside a function called from multiple coroutines.
96 - use a different method to detect destruction time.
97 - be more careful when freeing padlists just before global
98 destruction.
99 - fixed and expanded the call/cc example.
100 - renamed _terminate to _coro_run.
101 - new method Coro::Channel->shutdown.
102 - try pthreads on openbsd <4.4 (broken sigaltstack, will
103 pthreads fare better?).
104 - be less picky about destroying "a" running coroutine.
