perl.org has problems today, so it's not been uploaded there yet.

Good morning.  It's my pleasure to announce that POE 0.16 has been
uploaded to the PAUSE.  It will arrive at your favorite CPAN mirror
after the customary propagation delay.

POE is an application kernel that uses events and state machines to
implement cooperative threads.  It includes a high-level I/O library
that hides most of the usual client/server tediosity.  It has been
developed and used in mission-critical systems since August 1998.

POE is 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/

(Actually, poe.perl.org seems to be having troubles right now.)

It's been about a month (and two four development releases) since
0.15.  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.

This is mainly a maintenance release.  Very few new features have been
added.  Highlights since 0.15:

* Fixed timers when using Event, Gtk, or Tk event loops.  POE's select
  loop didn't need fixing.

* Filter::HTTPD was overhauled.  It no longer dies on error, for
  example.

* Added a LOT of workarounds for features that are broken or missing
  on various flavors of Windows.  More are needed, however.

* Fixed ReadLine and Curses wheels when using Event.

* Fixed a long-standing race condition when changing filters at
  runtime.

When perl.org comes back, you can read more about this, historical,
and future releases on the web:

  The full CHANGES file: http://poe.perl.org/poedown/CHANGES
  The full README file : http://poe.perl.org/poedown/README
  The full TODO file   : http://poe.perl.org/poedown/TODO

In the meantime, the README and an excerpt from CHANGES are available
from SourceForge.

Thanks for reading!
