52.0 92.4
6 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: max_outstanding was removed, use 10 - fix aio_busy w.r.t. fractional delays.
7 a group with a feeder instead. 11 - add aio_chmod, aio_chown, aio_utime (linux successfully demonstrated
12 that you can block on futimes...).
13 - allow undef as fileoffset for aio_read/write and use read/write(2)
14 internally (useful for sockets or O_APPEND handles).
15 - allow undef for length in aio_write.
16 - negative dataoffsets work as expected now in aio_read/aio_write.
17 - use NV instead of UV for 32 bit perls and file offsets, as NVs
18 have a larger range then.
19 - shared code between BDB and IO::AIO.
20 - correctly set errno to ENOSYS on unimplemented functions
21 (should never happen, though).

232.33 Tue Jan 23 23:55:41 CET 2007
24 - fix install path (Andreas J. Koenig).
25
262.32 Mon Jan 22 16:56:23 CET 2007
27 - added aio_rmtree.
28 - wow, aio_mkdir was missing.
29 - aio_load did return undef on error, not -1.
30 - use prefixexp not prefix in autoconf.pm
31 (suggested by ... rt.cpan.org unreachable).
32 - avoid installing autoconf.pm.

342.31 Sat Jan 6 03:46:02 CET 2007
35 - added aio_load.
36

39 or crashes.

412.21 Fri Dec 22 05:03:38 CET 2006
42 - minor doc updates.
43 - minor cleanups.

46
472.2 Tue Oct 31 00:31:00 CET 2006
48 - minor doc updates.
49 - added aio_readlink.
50 - properly zero-terminate aio_read buffer.
51 - fix aio_read/write with nonzero dataoffset.
52 - reduced size of aio request structure.
53 - better diagnostics when pathnames etc. are not byte-encoded;
54 do not leak request in that case, either.
55
562.1 Sun Oct 29 02:01:57 CET 2006
57 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace IO::AIO::poll_some by
58 IO::AIO::max_poll_reqs and IO::AIO::max_poll_time.
59 - fix a bug in aio_move where it would fail everytime
60 it would have to copy files manually.
61 - doc updates.
62 - start threads only on (very low) demand.
63 - end superfluous threads automatically after 10s idling.
64 - add IO::AIO::max_idle to control this.
65 - some tuning applied to random places.
66 - add aio_mknod.
