31.5 3TODO: better autoconf.pm that can return LIBS etc.
4TODO: aio_cp/mvtree/rmtree
5TODO: aio_utime, aio_chmod, aio_chown?

7TODO: expose max_idle
8 - fix a bug in aio_move where it would fail everytime
9 it would have to copy files manually.
10 - start threads only on (very low) demand.
11 - end threads automatically after 10s idle.
12 - some tuning applied to random places.
13 - add aio_mknod.
14
152.0 Thu Oct 26 18:27:58 CEST 2006
16 - minor incompatibility: max_outstanding semantics have changed.
17 - major rewrite, consider all functionality EXPERIMENTAL.
18 - aio requests can be cancelled.
19 - callbacks can be (re-)set later.
20 - aio requests can choose between 9 priorities.
21 - add aio_group: aio requests can be grouped
22 into composite requests.
23 - generator interface for groups.
24 - add IO::AIO::poll_some.
25 - major documentation improvements.
26 - very minor bugfixes.
27 - add aio_nop for dummy requests.
28 - add aio_busy mainly for benchmarking and debugging.
29 - use "fast" mutexes on linux.
30 - use dynamic (and larger) buffers instead of
31 putting them onto the stack.
32 - optimise x86 and amd64 a bit.
33 - better error checking when ENOMEM.
34 - hopefully fix mem and dirp leaks on fork.
35 - warn about broken perl malloc.
36 - compiles on cygwin (but pread is broken on cygwin
37 which is not detected by autoconf, so you have to
38 edit autoconf/config.h yourself to enable emulation).
39
401.8 Sat Jun 24 22:20:44 CEST 2006
41 - add and/or document aio_rename, aio_link, aio_symlink and aio_move.
42
431.73 Wed Mar 1 22:49:32 CET 2006
44 - codename "jost"
45 - AIX/Solaris(?) aren't being helpful again, hardcode a value
46 for NAME_MAX and drive with your eyes closed (reported by
47 wcooley@nakedape.cc).
48
491.72 Thu Feb 2 00:40:44 CET 2006
50 - another minor bug in aio_scandir, again, the callback was called
51 twice when the directory can't be stat'ed.
52
531.71 Mon Dec 26 20:20:03 CET 2005
54 - grr, another minor bug in aio_scandir, this time resulting
55 in a runtime error.
56
571.7 Mon Dec 26 19:29:48 CET 2005
58 - aio_scandir errornously called callback twice in some cases.
59 - added AnyEvent example.
60
611.61 Wed Sep 7 19:40:42 CEST 2005
62 - no longer include $Config{libs}, as distros include too much
63 garbage in there that is not installed on typical systems
64 (for example, debian links perl against -lgdbm and many more
65 libraries despite perl not needing it, slowing down startup and
66 wasting memory).
67
681.6 Tue Aug 30 17:44:44 CEST 2005
69 - added aio_readdir, aio_scandir.
70 - added aio_sendfile, including sendfile emulation when sendfile
71 isn't available. Linux, FreeBSD and HP-UX might work (sendfilev
72 support is unavailable on my solaris 8 machine, but preliminary
73 code is there. What's lacking is configury stuff and testing...).
