62.0 Tue Jan 4 09:16:56 CET 2011
7 - hopefully fully upgraded to HTTP/1.1.
8 - support HTTP/1.1 persistent and HTTP/1.0 keep-alive connections.
9 - drop https-proxy-connection support. seems unused and ill-specified.
10 - use more differentiated 59x status codes.
11 - properly use url (not proxy) hostname to verify server certificate.
12 - much improved cookie implementation:
13 - properly implement cookie expiry (for new cookies).
14 - new function to expire cookies and sessions: cookie_jar_expire.
15 - add special exception to parse broken expires= keys in
16 set-cookie headers.
17 - do not quote cookie values when not strictly necessary, to
18 improve compatibility with broken servers.
19 - accept and send lots of invalid cookie values exactly as
20 they were received - this should not impact valid values.
21 - lowercase cookie parameter names for improved compatibility.
22 - support the max-age cookie parameter, overrides expires.
23 - support cookie dates (and a few others) in parse_date.
24 - properly support value-less parameters (e.g. secure, httponly).
25 - do not send Host: header in a proxy CONNECT request.
26 - use common::sense.
27 - lowercase hostnames and schemes.
28 - ignore leading zeroes in http version.
29 - handle spaces in content-length headers more gracefully.

311.5 Fri Dec 31 04:47:08 CET 2010
32 - bugfix: after headers were received, if any error occured the wrong
33 (server-sent) Status and Reason fields would be passed to the callback.
34 - when an error occurs during transfer, preserve status/reason.
35 - add socks4a connect example.
36 - new "tcp_connect" parameter.
37 - new format_date and parse_date functions.
38 - diagnose unexpected eof as such when the length is known.
39 - add 205 to the responses without body.

411.46 Mon Sep 6 08:29:34 CEST 2010
42 - some (broken) servers differentiate between empty search parts
43 and nonexistant search parts, work around this (problem
44 analyzed by Sergey Zasenko).
45 - possibly increase robustness by always setting an on_error
46 callback on the AnyEvent::Handle object (especially in case
47 of user errors, such as nehative timeouts).
48 - we now always follow 301/302/303 redirects and mutate POST to GET.
49 - we now always follow 307 redirects, even for POST.
50 - header-less responses are not parsed correctly (at a negative
51 speed penatly :).
52
531.45 Wed Jun 16 21:15:26 CEST 2010
54 - fix a bug where the handle would go away directly after a successful
55 connect (analyzed and patch by Maxim Dounin).
56 - due to popular demand, introduce the Redirect pseudo response header.
57 - document URL pseudo-header better.
58 - explain how to implement DNS caching.
59
601.44 Sat Dec 5 16:36:20 CET 2009
61 - do not generate content-length on get requests (if the body is empty),
62 as there are even more broken servers out there.
63 - allow set_proxy to clear the proxy again.
64 - set_proxy will now croak on invalid urls.
65 - support overriding the Host-header (requested by Tatsuhiko Miyagawa).
66
671.43 Fri Aug 14 17:02:02 CEST 2009
68 - provide on_prepare callback on common request.
69
701.42 Wed Aug 5 18:43:01 CEST 2009
71 - allow suppression of auto-supplied header fieds by specifying undef
72 (requested by Mr Guest).
73 - allow proxy scheme to be missing, as documented
74 (reported by Mr Guest).
75 - do not follow redirects if we do not have a location header
76 (requested by Mr Guest).
77
781.41 Sat Jul 25 03:27:05 CEST 2009
79 - correctly parse completely headerless responses (e.g. by gatling).
80 (analysed by Robin Redeker).
81
821.4 Tue Jul 7 02:14:53 CEST 2009
7 - http_request would not instantly clear the connection slot on 83 - http_request would not instantly clear the connection slot on
8 tcp_connect failures, potentially leading to deadlocks. 84 tcp_connect failures, potentially leading to deadlocks.
85 - fix a bug where a connection error is wrongly reported
86 as EINPROGRESS.
9 - new parameters: on_header, on_body, want_body_handle. 87 - new parameters: on_header, on_body, want_body_handle.
10 - redirects will be followed when recurse is enabled whether or not 88 - redirects will be followed when recurse is enabled whether or not
11 the body dowload was successful or not. 89 the body dowload was successful or not.
12 - include :port in Host header when given in the url (many sites break 90 - include :port in Host header when given in the url (many sites break
13 when it's always there, and many break if it's missing...). 91 when it's always there, and many break if it's missing...).
