POE 0.2804 (or 0.28_04 if you're getting it from CPAN) has been uploaded to the usual places. This is a release candidate for 0.29. Please test it, especially on---and I'm being nice here---"legacy" versions of Perl (ones before 5.6.1).
POE's makefile includes a reportupload target to assist in reporting test successes or failures. Just make reportupload from the distribution's root. You can find a tarball on the web if your favorite CPAN mirror doesn't have it already. http://poe.perl.org/?Where_to_Get_POE Other highlights in this release: - Various documentation patches. - call() is about 20% faster, which means Wheel-based I/O is also improved. Most components will also see performance gains. - The "run() was not called" flag has been exposed. Tests and programs that need to disable this warning explicitly can do so. - A new controls/knobs/magic system has been created. Runtime configuration options and statistics will be added to it later. - Wheels' /.*State/ parameters have been fully deprecated. - POE should work again on perl builds as old as 5.004-ish. - POE should install via CPAN on the most recent ActivePerl build. Thanks. -- Rocco Caputo
