         * IO::Async::Loop->new magic constructor now caches the loop; useful
           for wrapping modules, other event system integration, etc..

0.32    ADDITIONS:
         * IO::Async::Timer::Absolute
         * Listener accessors for ->sockname, ->family, ->socktype

        CHANGES:

         * Delegate Protocol->close method and on_closed continuation to its
           transport object

         * Cope with exceptional-state sockets in Loop::Poll

0.29    CHANGES:
         * Don't require 'CODE' refs for callbacks/continations; this allows
           the use of CODEref objects, &{} operator overloads, or other things
           that are callable
         * Implement 'read_all' and 'write_all' options on IO::Async::Stream

           $self reference

0.28    BUGFIXES:
         * Ensure that Timer->start returns $self even when not in a Loop
         * Accept bare GLOB refs as IO::Async::Listener handles; upgrade them
           to IO::Socket refs if required
         * Applied documentation patch from RT 55375 - thanks to
           Chris Williams

0.27    CHANGES:
         * Implement 'autoflush' option on IO::Async::Stream

        BUGFIXES:
         * Avoid $_ breaking stored signal handler references when invoking
           them
         * Ignore EINTR from sysread/syswrite
         * More reliable socket address tests - don't rely on uninitialised
           padding bytes between struct members

0.26    BUGFIXES:
         * Connect to INADDR_LOOPBACK rather than INADDR_ANY during
           t/24listener.t; hopefully fixes FAILs on OpenBSD
         * Fix IO::Async::Stream during combined read/write-ready of a closed
           stream

0.25    CHANGES:
         * Accept 'stream'/'dgram'/'raw' as symbolic shortcuts for socket
           types in connect/listen operations - avoids 'use Socket'

           well as raw GLOB refs

        BUGFIXES:
         * Various changes to test scripts to hopefully improve portability or
           reliability during smoke tests

0.24    ADDITIONS:
         * Timer subclasses - Countdown and Periodic
         * Idleness event watching via low-level 'watch_io/unwatch_io' methods
           and higher-level 'later' method
         * Added the missing 'unwatch_child' method
         * Shareable acceptance testing suite for IO::Async::Loop subclasses
           for better testing in subclass implementations

        CHANGES:
         * More future-proof API version checking for subclasses - requires
           subclasses to declare their version. 
           ### pre-0.24 Loop subclasses are no longer compatible. ###
         * Entirely remove the need to $loop->enable_childmanager by calling
           waitpid() in 'watch_child'.

0.23    CHANGES:
         * Rearranged IO::Async::Listener to be a constructable Notifier
           suclass
         * Allow Signal, Timer and Listener to act as base classes as well as
           standalone with callbacks

           backward-compatibility wrapper

0.22    CHANGES:
         * Added tcp-proxy.pl example
         * More documentation on IO::Async::Notifier subclass-override methods
         * Documented that IO::Async::MergePoint is just an Async::MergePoint
         * Various small updates to keep CPANTS happy

        BUGFIXES:
         * Don't test Async::MergePoint locally as it's now a separate dist,
           and the tests here were reporting false negatives.

0.21    CHANGES:
         * Added "use warnings" to all modules
         * Created Notifier->configure method to allow changing properties of
           a Notifier or subclass after construction
         * New 'examples' dir with some small example scripts

        BUGFIXES:
         * More robust timing tests to avoid some spurious test failures due
           to busy testing servers or other non-issues

0.20    CHANGES:
         * Major reworking of underlying Loop implementation:
            + Unified low-level IO, timer and signal watches as callbacks
            + Split IO handle parts of Notifier into new IO::Async::Handle
              class
            + Created Timer and Signal subclasses of Notifier

           These changes will require a compatible upgrade to the underlying
           Loop implementation.

         * Hide SignalProxy and TimeQueue from CPAN's indexer, as they are
           internal-only details that don't need exposing there.
         * Loop magic constructor now warns if a specifically-requested class
           is not available
         * Allow multiple attachment of signals via Loop->attach_signal or new
           Signal objects

0.19    CHANGES:
         * Allow control of Sequencer's pipelining
         * Documentation fixes
         * Allow Loop->run_child to take a 'setup' array
         * Added 'setuid', 'setgid' and 'setgroups' child setup operations
         * Support 'on_notifier' in Loop->listen

        BUGFIXES:
         * carp before return in Stream->write so it actually prints
         * Ensure Streams still work after being closed and reopened by
           ->set_handle
         * If IO::Socket->new() fails, try again with generic ->socket
           (makes IPv6 work on platforms without IO::Socket::INET6)

0.18    CHANGES:
         * Allow Sequencer to be a base class as well as using constructor
           callbacks
         * Use signal names from Config.pm rather than relying on POSIX.pm.
           Covers more signals that way

        BUGFIXES:
         * Gracefully handle accept() returning EAGAIN
         * Fixed handling of IO::Socket->getsockopt( SOL_SOCKET, SO_ERROR )

0.17    CHANGES:
         * Added Stream->close_when_empty and ->close_now. Added docs
         * Added OS abstractions of socketpair() and pipe()
         * Many documentation changes and updates

        BUGFIXES:
         * Properly handle stream read/write errors; close immediately rather
           than deferring until empty.
         * Various CPAN testers somketest bug fixes
         * Fixed http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=38476

0.16    ADDITIONS:
         * Loop->requeue_timer()
         * Magic constructor in IO::Async::Loop which tries to find the best
           subclass
         * 'chdir' and 'nice' ChildManager operations

        CHANGES:
         * Make sure that top-level objects are refcount-clean by using
           Test::Refcount, and Scalar::Util::weaken()

        BUGFIXES:
         * Keep perl 5.6.1 happy by not passing LocalPort => 0 when
           constructing IO::Socket::INETs
         * Pass the Type option to IO::Socket::INET constructor in test
           scripts

0.15    REMOVALS:
         * IO::Async::Set subclasses and IO::Async::Buffer have now been
           entirely removed.

        CHANGES:

         * Set SO_REUSEADDR on listening sockets by default
         * Allow Loop->listen() on a plain filehandle containing a socket
         * No longer any need to explcitly call Loop->enable_childmanager

        BUGFIXES:
         * IO::Async::Loop->_adjust_timeout actually works properly
         * Notifier->close() only runs on_closed callback if it actually 
           closed - allows for neater cross-connected Notifiers
         * Made Notifier->want_{read,write}ready more efficient
         * Notifier->close() on a child notifier works
         * Loop->listen() should take the first successful address, rather
           than trying them all

0.14    REMOVALS:
         * IO::Async::Set subclasses and IO::Async::Buffer are now completely
           deprecated. Any attempt to use them will fail immediately.

         * Further shortcuts in ChildManager setup keys - IO references and
           simple string operation names
         * Support handle-less IO::Async::Notifiers that have IO handles added
           to them later
         * Allow 'setup' key to Loop->detach_code()
         * Various documentation updates

        BUGFIXES:
         * Allow the same filehandle to be 'dup'ed more than once in
           ChildManager

0.13    CHANGES:
         * Flush all awaiting data from Stream when it becomes writeready
         * Supply a real IO::Async::Test module to allow testing in 3rd party
           distros
         * Various documentation fixes

        BUGFIXES:
         * Don't rely on STDOUT being writable during test scripts

0.12    CHANGES:
         * Allow Notifiers that are write-only.
         * Added ChildManager->open and ->run; with ->open_child and 
           ->run_child on the containing Loop.

         * Make sure to "use IO::Socket" in IO::Async::Connector
         * Pass 'socktype' argument to ->connect during testing

0.11    INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES:
         * Renamed IO::Async::Set::* to IO::Async::Loop::* - provided
           backward-compatibility wrappers around old names. 
           IO::Async::Set::GMainLoop has become IO::Async::Lib::Glib
         * Renamed IO::Async::Buffer to IO::Async::Stream - provided backward-
           compatibility wrapper around old name.
         * Loop->get_childmanager() and ->get_sigproxy() no longer allowed

        CHANGES:
         * Extended ->loop_once() and ->loop() feature out to all
           IO::Async::Loop classes
         * Added IO::Async::Resolver and IO::Async::Connector, plus Loop
           integration
         * Allow write-only IO::Async::Notifiers that have no read handle or
           readiness callback.

0.10    INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES:
         * Renamed events and methods in IO::Async::Notifier to better fit the
           naming scheme of normal Perl handles. Backward-compatibility hooks
           are currently provided, but will be removed in a later release. Any
           code using the old names should be updated

        CHANGES:
         * Allow DetachedCode to have multiple back-end worker processes.
         * Control if a back-end worker exits when the code "die"s
         * Added 'close()' method on Notifiers/Buffers. Sensible behaviour on
           buffers with queued data to send
         * Reset %SIG hash in ChildManager->detach_child()

           subclasses.
         * Added MergePoint object
         * Added 'on_closed' callback support to IO::Async::Notifier

        BUGFIXES:
         * Don't depend on system locale when checking string value of $!
         * Fixed test scripts to more closely approximate real code behaviour
           in the presence of poll() vs. deferred signal delivery

0.08    CHANGES:
         * Added ChildManager->detach_child() method
         * Added DetachedCode object

        BUGFIXES:
         * Better tests for presence of Glib to improve test false failures
         * More lenient times in test script 11set-IO-Poll-timing to allow for
           variances at test time
         * Avoid bugs in post_select()/post_poll() caused by some notifier
           callbacks removing other notifiers from the set

0.07    BUGFIXES:
         * Avoid race condition in t/30childmanager.t - wait for child process
           to actually exit
         * Avoid race condition in IO::Async::ChildManager->spawn() by waiting
           for SIGCHLD+pipe close, rather than SIGCHLD+pipe data

0.06    CHANGES:
         * Allow 'env' setup key to ChildManager->spawn() to change the
           child's %ENV
         * Updated the way some of the ->spawn() tests are conducted. There
           seems to be massive failures reported on cpantesters against 0.05.
           These changes won't fix the bugs, but should assist in reporting
           and tracking them down.

        BUGFIXES:
         * Don't rely on existence of /bin/true - test for /usr/bin/true as
           well, fall back on "$^X -e 1"
         * Avoid kernel race condition in t/32childmanager-spawn-setup.t by
           proper use of select() when testing.

0.05    CHANGES:
         * Added ChildManager object

           handling IO errors on underlying sysread()/syswrite() calls

0.03    CHANGES:
         * No longer build_requires 'Glib' - print a warning if it's not
           installed but carry on anyway.
         * IO_Poll->loop_once() now returns the result from the poll() call
         * Added concept of nested child notifiers within Notifier object

        BUGFIXES:
         * Fix to test scripts that call IO_Poll's loop_once() with a timeout
           of zero. This can cause a kernel race condition, so supply some
           small non-zero value instead.

0.02    INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES:
         * Event methods/callback functions now called "on_*" to distinguish
           them
         * Callback functions now pass $self as first argument to simplify
           called code

        CHANGES:
         * Improved POD in Notifier.pm and Buffer.pm

        BUGFIXES:
         * GMainLoop.pm - return 1 from callbacks so that glib doesn't remove
           our IO sources
         * GMainLoop.pm - make sure re-asserting want_writeready actually adds
           the IO source again

0.01    First version, released on an unsuspecting world.
