Unicorn is a Rack HTTP server for Unix and fast clients
Small fixes and documentation are the focus of this release.
James Golick reported and helped me track down a bug that caused
SIGHUP to drop the default listener (0.0.0.0:8080) if and only
if listeners were completely unspecified in both the
command-line and Unicorn config file. The Unicorn config file
remains the recommended option for specifying listeners as it
allows fine-tuning of the :backlog, :rcvbuf, :sndbuf,
:tcp_nopush, and :tcp_nodelay options.
There are some documentation (and resulting website)
improvements. setup.rb users will notice the new section 1
manpages for `unicorn` and `unicorn_rails`, Rubygems users
will have to install manpages manually or use the website.
Edit: That's not entirely true, I screwed up the package but
you can get them from http://unicorn.bogomips.org/unicorn.1
and http://unicorn.bogomips.org/unicorn_rails.1
The HTTP parser got a 3rd-party code review which resulted in
some cleanups and one insignificant bugfix as a result.
Additionally, the HTTP parser compiles, runs and passes unit
tests under Rubinius. The pure-Ruby parts still do not work yet
and we currently lack the resources/interest to pursue this
further but help will be gladly accepted.
The website now has an Atom feed for new release announcements.
Those unfamiliar with Atom or HTTP may finger unicorn@bogomips.org
for the latest announcements.

Unicorn is a Rack HTTP server for Unix, fast clients and nothing else[1]
We now have support for "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" bodies in
requests. Not only that, Rack applications reading input bodies
get that data streamed off to the client socket on an as-needed
basis. This allows the application to do things like upload
progress notification and even tunneling of arbitrary stream
protocols via bidirectional chunked encoding.
See Unicorn::App::Inetd and examples/git.ru (including the
comments) for an example of tunneling the git:// protocol over
HTTP.
This release also gives applications the ability to respond
positively to "Expect: 100-continue" headers before being rerun
without closing the socket connection. See Unicorn::App::Inetd
for an example of how this is used.
This release is NOT recommended for production use.

[1] - Actually, most of the new features in this release should in fact
work on non-Unix OSes so they can be adapted for other servers with
wider audiences.
[2] - This is the git:// protocol tunneled inside a bidirectional
"Transfer-Encoding: chunked" request/response using this latest
release of Unicorn.
