10 - added aio_rmtree.
11 - wow, aio_mkdir was missing.
12 - aio_load did return undef on error, not -1.
13 - use prefixexp not prefix in autoconf.pm
14 (suggested by ... rt.cpan.org unreachable).
15 - avoid installing autoconf.pm.

21 - fix off-by-one bug in aio_read, causing memory corruption
22 or crashes.
23
242.21 Fri Dec 22 05:03:38 CET 2006
25 - minor doc updates.
26 - minor cleanups.

29
302.2 Tue Oct 31 00:31:00 CET 2006
31 - minor doc updates.
32 - added aio_readlink.
33 - properly zero-terminate aio_read buffer.
34 - fix aio_read/write with nonzero dataoffset.
35 - reduced size of aio request structure.
36 - better diagnostics when pathnames etc. are not byte-encoded;
37 do not leak request in that case, either.
38
392.1 Sun Oct 29 02:01:57 CET 2006
40 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace IO::AIO::poll_some by
41 IO::AIO::max_poll_reqs and IO::AIO::max_poll_time.
42 - fix a bug in aio_move where it would fail everytime
43 it would have to copy files manually.
44 - doc updates.
45 - start threads only on (very low) demand.
46 - end superfluous threads automatically after 10s idling.
47 - add IO::AIO::max_idle to control this.
48 - some tuning applied to random places.
49 - add aio_mknod.
50
512.0 Thu Oct 26 18:27:58 CEST 2006
52 - minor incompatibility: max_outstanding semantics have changed.
53 - major rewrite, consider all functionality EXPERIMENTAL.
54 - aio requests can be cancelled.
55 - callbacks can be (re-)set later.
56 - aio requests can choose between 9 priorities.
57 - add aio_group: aio requests can be grouped
58 into composite requests.
59 - generator interface for groups.
60 - add IO::AIO::poll_some.
61 - major documentation improvements.
62 - very minor bugfixes.
63 - add aio_nop for dummy requests.
64 - add aio_busy mainly for benchmarking and debugging.
65 - use "fast" mutexes on linux.
66 - use dynamic (and larger) buffers instead of
67 putting them onto the stack.
68 - optimise x86 and amd64 a bit.
69 - better error checking when ENOMEM.
70 - hopefully fix mem and dirp leaks on fork.
71 - warn about broken perl malloc.
72 - compiles on cygwin (but pread is broken on cygwin
73 which is not detected by autoconf, so you have to
74 edit autoconf/config.h yourself to enable emulation).
75
761.8 Sat Jun 24 22:20:44 CEST 2006
77 - add and/or document aio_rename, aio_link, aio_symlink and aio_move.
78
791.73 Wed Mar 1 22:49:32 CET 2006
80 - codename "jost"
81 - AIX/Solaris(?) aren't being helpful again, hardcode a value
82 for NAME_MAX and drive with your eyes closed (reported by
83 wcooley@nakedape.cc).
84
851.72 Thu Feb 2 00:40:44 CET 2006
86 - another minor bug in aio_scandir, again, the callback was called
87 twice when the directory can't be stat'ed.
88
891.71 Mon Dec 26 20:20:03 CET 2005
90 - grr, another minor bug in aio_scandir, this time resulting
91 in a runtime error.
92
931.7 Mon Dec 26 19:29:48 CET 2005
94 - aio_scandir errornously called callback twice in some cases.
95 - added AnyEvent example.
96
971.61 Wed Sep 7 19:40:42 CEST 2005
98 - no longer include $Config{libs}, as distros include too much
99 garbage in there that is not installed on typical systems
100 (for example, debian links perl against -lgdbm and many more
101 libraries despite perl not needing it, slowing down startup and
102 wasting memory).
