What's going on with webob right now?  The docs reference a 1.2b4 with the new fangled client functionality, but the latest on pypi is 1.2b3.

An even better question is, why is it STILL in beta? Why not just
release a "stable" one and then put the new features in 1.3 or something?

Yeah that's a good point too. Though "beta" in this case doesn't really bug me since webob works just fine.

And that is why it bugs ME. If it works fine, why not release it? It certainly has been in beta long enough.

The reason for the betas is that I try to have a couple weeks with no
major changes or additions before the "gold" releases, so that the
code has some time to get tested in the real world by people who use
the betas / RC's. There were some opportunities to make a the 1.2
stable release, but every time I was actually looking at doing that,
there was some ongoing work (webob.static, webob.client etc) or
something like that was merged in just recently, so I didn't feel it's
entirely safe to just make an 1.2 release.

I've made a 1.2rc1 release just now and 1.2 stable should follow in
about a week. I'd love to get coverage back to 100% before that even
if with pragmas, because otherwise future commits can reduce coverage
further and it would easily pass unnoticed.

Thanks Sergey, last I checked on the HEAD, coverage was 99% at least on python2.7 and the line not covered I could almost see a pragma no cover there. 


I made webobtoolkit depend on the new client functionality and all my tests pass. 


Sometime this week I will hopefully have time to try it on appengine. I'll let you know if I see any issues.

FYI, I recently brought coverage back up, and fixed failing webob.client
tests. When I did so, I removed non-functional behavior that attempted
to use urllib3. Not sure if Ian wants to try to readd that before a
final release, or what.

Thanks to everyone who contributed!

And thanks to Chris and Sergey for making up for my less-than-complete tests!
