This version was released on 2000-08-24.

Updated README and POE's main manpage to point to the new mailing list and web addresses.

Added a note about using the same versions of the same modules when passing messages across different machines. Differences in modules or versions can introduce some pretty subtle and nasty problems.

t/19_filterchange.t wouldn't work without Storable. Made it use lib/MyOtherFreezer instead, so at least filter changing can be tested.

Bypass alarm(3) calls in lib/TestPipe.pm when trying to create non-blocking pipes on MSWin32 systems.

Bypass DISPLAY environment variable checking in t/06_tk.t on MSWin32 systems. Perl/Tk doesn't seem to use DISPLAY there.

Made the tests' missing module messages more comprehensible. Hopefully they'll have a lesser tendency to be mistaken for test failures now.

Skipped UNIX domain sockets tests on MSWin32, which seems not to support them.

Skipped signals tests on MSWin32, which doesn't seem to do signals.

TRACE_PROFILE output was mixed across STDERR and STDOUT. Put it all on STDERR. evilPetey's got a good evilEye.
