Hello,

The Lwt team is pleased to announce the release of Lwt 2.2.0. You can
download it at:

  http://ocsigen.org/lwt/install

Here is a list of changes from the previous version (2.1.1):

  * Bugfixes:
    ** Fix a bug with cancellable threads causing {{{Canceled}}}
       exceptions to be raised randomly
    ** Fix a fd-leak in Lwt_io.open_connection
  * {{{Lwt_unix}}} now use libev instead of select
  * Add thread local storage support to {{{Lwt}}}
  * Add backtrace support to {{{Lwt}}}. Now {{{Lwt}}} exceptions can
    be recored by using the syntax extension with the {{{-lwt-debug}}}
    command line switch.
  * Allow blocking system calls to be executed in parallels
  * Change the type of many functions of {{{Lwt_unix}}}, which now
    return a {{{Lwt}}} thread
  * Add functions {{{Lwt_unix.readable}}} and {{{Lwt_unix.writable}}}
  * Add function {{{Lwt_io.is_busy}}}
  * Add functions {{{Lwt_event.delay}}} and {{{Lwt_signal.delay}}}
  * Add function {{{Lwt_term.render_update}}}
  * Add function {{{Lwt_ssl.embed_socket}}}
  * Add module {{{Lwt_bytes}}} defining operations on bigarrays
    instead of strings
  * Use bigarrays in Lwt_io instead of strings for the internal buffer.
    Lwt_io.make now takes a function that uses a bigarray.
  * Add module {{{Lwt_switch}}}

Enjoy!
