10 - do not keep a reference to the argument itself in
11 Coro::Senmaphore::guard, as it could change later.
12 - support SO_RCVBUF/SO_SNDBUF nonstandard Coro::Socket options,
13 should support a prepare callback.

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

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

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