[ANN] Rainbows! 0.90.0 - Thread* fixes and RevFiberSpawn

[Eric Wong]

Rainbows! is an HTTP server for sleepy Rack applications.  It is based on
Unicorn, but designed to handle applications that expect long
request/response times and/or slow clients.  For Rack applications not
heavily bound by slow external network dependencies, consider Unicorn
instead as it simpler and easier to debug.

* git://git.bogomips.org/rainbows.git

Changes:

This release should fix ThreadSpawn green thread blocking issues
under MRI 1.8.  Excessive socket closing is avoided when using
Thread* models with Sunshowers (or clients disconnecting
during uploads).

There is a new RevFiberSpawn concurrency model which combines
Rev with the traditional FiberSpawn model.

[ANN] Zbatery - for newer Rainbows!

[Eric Wong]

Zbatery is an HTTP server for Rack applications on systems that either
do not support fork(), or have no memory (nor need) to run the
master/worker model.  It is based on Rainbows! (which is based on
Unicorn (which is based on Mongrel)) and inherits parts of each.
Zbatery supports your choice of all the thread/fiber/event/actor-based
concurrency models and Rack middleware that Rainbows! supports (or will
ever support) in a single process.

Zbatery will still exploit certain features of Unix for transparent
upgrades, log reopening, and graceful stops, but does not rely on them
for basic functionality.

Changes:

This gem release allows compatibility with newer versions of
Rainbows!  This also fixes a bug when $stdout is not redirected
to a file.
