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17 - do not quote cookie values when not strictly necessary, to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
83 - http_request would not instantly clear the connection slot on
84 tcp_connect failures, potentially leading to deadlocks.
85 - fix a bug where a connection error is wrongly reported
86 as EINPROGRESS.
87 - new parameters: on_header, on_body, want_body_handle.
88 - redirects will be followed when recurse is enabled whether or not
89 the body dowload was successful or not.
90 - include :port in Host header when given in the url (many sites break
91 when it's always there, and many break if it's missing...).
92 - pass the empty string, not undef, when there is no body but
93 no error occured.
94 - allow passing of tls_ctx, predefine two https security profiles.
95 - ucfirst all error messages generated internally.
96 - include "U" token in User-Agent.
97 - document $AnyEvent::HTTP::MAX_PER_HOST.
98 - allow empty field names in response headers (microsoft hits. microsoft
99 hits. microsoft hits. you die).

1011.12 Thu Jun 11 14:45:18 CEST 2009
102 - $scheme wasn't optional in the proxy specification (reported by
103 Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann).
104
1051.11 Fri Nov 21 09:18:11 CET 2008
106 - work around a perl core bug not properly refcounting function arguments,
107 causing "200 OK" with random body results (reported by Дмитрий Шалашов).
