2018-10-18doc: update more URLs to use HTTPS and avoid redirects
Latency from redirects is painful, and HTTPS can protect privacy in some cases.
2013-10-26license: allow all future versions of the GNU GPL
There is currently no GPLv4, so this change has no effect at the moment. In case the GPLv4 arrives and I am not alive to approve/review it, the lesser of evils is have give blanket approval of all future GPL versions (as published by the FSF). The worse evil is to be stuck with a license which cannot guarantee the Free-ness of this project in the future. This unfortunately means the FSF can theoretically come out with license terms I do not agree with, but the GPLv2 and GPLv3 will always be an option to all users.
2011-08-29add GPLv3 option to the license
Existing license terms (Ruby-specific) and GPLv2 remain in place, but GPLv3 is preferred as it helps with distribution of AGPLv3 code and is explicitly compatible with Apache License (v2.0). Many more reasons are documented by the FSF: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/quick-guide-gplv3.html http://gplv3.fsf.org/rms-why.html ref: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.ruby.unicorn.general/933
2009-10-05doc: make it clear contributors retain copyrights
We hope to never require copyright assignment here...
2009-08-17Documentation updates
* Documented Unicorn::HttpParser API methods * Keep GPL2 (COPYING) as-is without RDoc formatting. * The auto-generated index.html is stupid, replace it with README which looks saner.
2009-06-06Put copyright text in new files, include GPL2 text
Just clarifying the license terms of the new code. Other files should really have this notice in there as well.
2009-03-09Documentation updates
Reformat README to avoid preformatted text. Document signal handling in SIGNALS. Split out DESIGN, it's probably not as useful to end-users Update CONTRIBUTORS LICENSE: copyright is for me (Eric Wong), not Zed since this is a Mongrel fork.
