[ANN] Thin 1.2.8 Black Keys release

[Marc-André Cournoyer]

Hey,

Thin version 1.2.8 (codename Black Keys) is out!

== What's new?

 * Allow the connection to remain open for 1xx statuses [timshadel]

     Both the 100 and 101 status codes require that the connection to the

     server remain open. The 100 status code is used to tell the client that

     the server is still receiving its request, and will continue to read

     request input on the connection. The 101 status code is used to upgrade

     the existing connection to another protocol, and specifically is NOT

     used to upgrade a separate connection. Therefore, the connection must

     remain open after this response in order to facilitate that.

   

 * Accept IE7 badly encoded URL (eg.: %uEEEE)

 * Fix gemspec to work w/ Bundler [smparkes]

 * Add SSL support [tmm1]

 * Catch Errno::EPERM in Process.running? [Tony Kemp]

   On some systems (e.g. OpenBSD) you receive an EPERM exception if

   you try to Process.getpgid on a process you do not own (even if you

   are root). But it does mean that the process exists, so return true.

 * Fix Rails version check that select which Rack adapter to use. Was using CGI adapter in Rails 3.

 * Ignore SIGHUP when no restart block is given

 * Add SSL options to thin command line tool [goldmann]

      --ssl                    Enables SSL

      --ssl-key-file PATH      Path to private key

      --ssl-cert-file PATH     Path to certificate

      --ssl-verify             Enables SSL certificate verification

    

  * Expose peer SSL certificate in env (rack.peer_cert) [fd]

  * Adjusting unix socket permissions to be more open [mbj]
