4TODO: maybe implement a default message channel, very much like Erlang's
5 actor model (which is cool in a lot of important aspects (failures!),
6 but very lacking in others (higher level ipc)).

9 - automatically load Coro::Channel, Coro::RWLock, Coro::Semaphore,
10 Coro::SemaphoreSet, Coro::Signal and Coro::Specific on first "new"
11 method call.
12 - undocument Coro::Timer::sleep and obsolete whole module.
13 - optimise Coro::Timer::timeout memory and cpu usage.

16 - try a different approach on netbsd - netbsd 5 finally has marginally
17 working pthreads, but still broken ucontext/sigaltstack.
18 - openbsd 4.8 finally got their act together, Coro works out of the box
19 with asm, setjmp and pthreads (no change, just informational).

22 - port to the EV 4.0 API.
23 - work around bugs in mingw32, making strawberry perl work
24 out of the box.
25 - correctly modify Coro::AIO function prototypes
26 so that they reflect the "no optional parameters" rule.
27 - "ported" libcoro to C++.
28
295.23 Mon May 17 18:50:42 CEST 2010
30 - be more resistant to ordering changes when initialising
31 Coro::AnyEvent, Coro::EV and Coro::Event (reported by Matthias
32 Waldorf).
33 - document that perl 5.12 deliberately removed support for cloning.
34
355.22 Wed Apr 14 03:55:35 CEST 2010
36 - correctly return udnef on errors in Coro::Handle::read/write
37 (testcase by Marc Mims).
38 - convert Coro::Util into a "perl compatibility wrapper" - the functions
39 are less useful now, but are drop-in replacements for existing
40 functions, listing better alternatives in the documentation. This also
41 fixes a bug in Coro::LWP which naively substituted Socket::inet_aton
42 with Coro::Util::inet_aton.
43 - do not override $Coro::idle unconditionally in Coro.pm, as other
44 modules could have provided their own idle coro already
45 (for exmaple, Coro::AnyEvent).
46 - fix Coro::Util::gethost* functions.
47 - Coro::Timer corretcly exports it's symbols (reported by Hideki Yamamura).
48
495.21 Wed Dec 16 07:19:51 CET 2009
50 - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent when AnyEvent and Coro are used
51 together.
52 - add some examples on how to combine other event loops with Coro in
53 Coro::AnyEvent, and how to run it (and not to block). Seems to be
54 the most common source of confusion.
55 - try to catch people naively blocking in an event callback.
56 - work around the perl filehandle bug issue in conjunction with
57 older common::sense (as indirectly pointed out by ZSystem).
58 - clarify the "not from signal handlers" section.

12 - Coro::Storable destroyed the prototypes of the functions it wrapped. 61 - Coro::Storable destroyed the prototypes of the functions it wrapped.
13 - export rouse_cb and rouse_wait by default now. 62 - export rouse_cb and rouse_wait by default now.
14 - fix various prototype mismatches in Coro::AnyEvent and Coro::Handle. 63 - fix various prototype mismatches in Coro::AnyEvent and Coro::Handle.
