Subject: Fibers 1.1.0 released

Hi all,
On behalf of the Fibers team, I am very excited to announce Fibers 1.1.0.
Fibers is a lightweight concurrency facility for Guile that supports
non-blocking
input and output, millions of concurrent threads, and Concurrent
ML-inspired communication primitives. For more information, see the web
version of the manual at:
https://github.com/wingo/fibers/wiki/Manual
It's been a while since the last Fibers release back in 2017. This new
release includes a series of bug fixes and documentation improvements that
have been lying in the repository for a while. There are more pull requests
and improvements still in the repo and the hope is to start taking care of
them and address any issues very soon. Another main goal for this year is
to complete the support for other non-epoll backends (kqueue, libevent) so
more platforms can run Fibers.
The 1.1.0 tarball can be found here:
https://github.com/wingo/fibers/releases/download/v1.1.0/fibers-1.1.0.tar.gz
Its SHA256 sum is:
a06698a3a41b608d5b3d3b46561cb4607d0f228d5c6c7fa12b2e420a751a1fd3
fibers-1.1.0.tar.gz
* Changes since 1.0.0
- Destroy peer schedulers when returning from run-fibers.
- Handle EPOLLHUP like EPOLLERR.
- Don't use deprecated types scm_t_uint64 and scm_t_int64.
- Garbage collect synchronized items from channels queues.
- Added guix.scm for local development.
- Improve fibers performance by installing "catch" in scheduler instead of
in the fiber itself.
- Rebased fibers on top of lighter-weight "tasks".
- Garbage collect old condition waiters.
- Multiple documentation fixes and improvements.
- Added benchmarks.
- Support Guile 3.0 compilation.
Happy Hacking!
Aleix
