[This announcement sounds a little odd because it's also going to be posted to comp.lang.perl.announce.] Good morning. It's my pleasure to announce that POE 0.15 has been uploaded to the PAUSE. It will arrive at your favorite CPAN mirror after the customary propagation delay. It's available from two web sites right now, if you'd rather not wait for it to reach the CPAN site of your choice: POE's main web site: http://poe.perl.org/ SourceForge : http://sf.net/projects/poe/ It's been some 80 days and four development releases since 0.14. Thanks to everyone who sent in feedback and patches. If you would like to receive announcements of POE's development releases, please send a message to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. You will receive instructions for subscribing to POE's mailing list. Change highlights since 0.14: * Added a TODO file to the distribution. This is part changes roadmap and mostly a feature wishlist. * A second alarms interface. It's a little more complex than the original one, but it gives programs more control over timers. * XyzState parameters in wheels have been renamed to XyzEvent. This doesn't break existing code yet, but it is expected to in September. See the TODO file for exact breakage dates. * Documentation and installation fixes. POE won't clobber Devel::Trace anymore. * Removed use of features specific to perl 5.6.1. POE should once again be compatible with perl 5.004_05 and possibly older. * Better memory leak checking, and a leak fix in the signals code. * Better dependency checking and more graceful failure in the face of adversity. * Better Win32 support. Instructions for installing POE with ActiveState's PPM.
