POE (Perl Object Environment) is a general framework for event-driven, cooperatively multitasked programs. It is especially good as a basis for network software.

The documentation rewrite reached its complete first-draft milestone. An estimated 120 pages have been revised for this release. Compatibility issues and platform-specific edge cases, where identified, have been resolved. This includes the notorious F_GETFL and F_SETFL prototype mismatch warnings on Windows. An experimental run_while() method has been added to POE::Kernel. Please contact the mailing list if it's useful and/or broken.
A number of stability and performance fixes were
done, including making the tests less prone to
race conditions, improving the installation
process, eliminating known resource leaks, and
reducing CPU use when combined with Tk.
This release includes several bugfixes and new features. The most notable changes are POE::Wheel::Run's support for ActiveState Perl, and a vastly expanded test suite since 0.29.
