This version was released on 1999-06-15.

Updated samples/*sessions.perl to test $kernel->state(...) and discovered that the documentation was wrong about this function. Thanks, Sky, for pointing this out.

Fixed the documentation for $kernel->state(...) with regards to package and object sessions.

Made POE::Session an array reference, as part of the reorganization of POE's internals.

Revised all the manpages. Split the manpages into separate PODs, and put them at the end of each module. Rewnote the POE.pm overview, added some ASCII art, and threw away the "Design Goals" and related hype. Removed POE-TODO and POE-HINTS manpages.

Updated the README to be more readable. Moved the mailing list and web site information there. Should either or both change, stale information won't rot in a thousand manpages around the world.

Removed design notes from the ends of Kernel and Session, because docs go there now. Moved them to POE-TODO, which is now not included.

&POE::Session::create was broken-- I'm not sure how it worked to begin with. Fixed.

Revised the POE::Filter::HTTPD documentation to follow the rest of the manpages' format.

may break code: Minor interface change. &POE::Session::option can now fetch session option values without changing or deleting them in the process.

Changed $VERSION in POE.pm to not preserve the version's underscore. This changes the archive name format, so I'll start referring to versions without the underscore. Joy.
