bogomips.org is due to expire, soon, and I'm not willing to pay
extortionist fees to Ethos Capital/PIR/ICANN to keep a .org. So
it's at yhbt.net, for now, but it will change again to
whatever's affordable... Identity is overrated.
Tor users can use .onions and kick ICANN to the curb:
torsocks w3m http://unicorn.ou63pmih66umazou.onion/
torsocks git clone http://ou63pmih66umazou.onion/unicorn.git/
torsocks w3m http://ou63pmih66umazou.onion/unicorn-public/
While we're at it, `s/news.gmane.org/news.gmane.io/g', too.
(but I suspect that'll need to be resynched since our mail
"List-Id:" header is changing).

unicorn has no future, but at least some of our past is archived.
This was taken from nntp://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.ruby.mongrel.devel
as the HTTP parts of gmane are dead. Unfortunately, Gmane only
started archiving mongrel-development@rubyforge.org in 2008 and
discussions prior to that may be lost. If anybody has mbox, Maildir
or MH archives from those days, I'd be glad to import them.

Latency from redirects is painful, and HTTPS can protect privacy
in some cases.
|
|
bogomips.org is dropping prefixes to reduce subjectAltName bloat
in TLS certificates.
|
|
HTTPS helps some with reader privacy and Let's Encrypt seems to
be working well enough the past few months.
This change will allow us to reduce subjectAltName bloat in our
TLS certificate over time. It will also promote domain name
agility to support mirrors or migrations to other domains
(including a Tor hidden service mirror).
http://bogomips.org/unicorn/ will remain available for people on
legacy systems without usable TLS. There is no plan for automatic
redirecting from HTTP to HTTPS at this time.

ISSUES: note images are considered spam as well as HTML.
Links: Clarify we may only endorse the Free versions of nginx, not the
non-Free versions.
Add a link to Starman as a unicorn derivative, as I even use Starman
myself. Remove yahns, since it's really the complete opposite of
unicorn and probably not appropriate to place next to Starman and
gunicorn

The statement about C exts hasn't been true since 2010 when kgio was
unfortunately introduced. However, I've been working on killing off
kgio. Maybe raindrops isn't worth it given the limits of SMP, either.
And I'm even tempted to rewrite the HTTP parser in Ruby...
Furthermore, Ruby Enterprise Edition is long gone and Ruby 2.0
is already old, so update that bit about CoW-friendliness.
While we're at it, avoid mentioning kgio at all in the Links
document, too.

They'll continue to be maintained, but we're no longer advertising
them. Also, favor lowercase "unicorn" while we're at it since that
matches the executable and gem name to avoid unnecessary escaping
for RDoc.

Most of these were found by the `linkchecker' package
in Debian.

Pushing the boundaries of bad marketing :P

Update the old mailing list info with our new public-inbox info.
The old mongrel.rubyforge.org links have been dead for years,
oh well. There's only a few days left of RubyForge left...

Since unicorn is designed to be deployed behind nginx (or
similar), X-Forwarded-* headers are common and Rack applications
may blindly trust spoofed X-Forwarded-* headers. UnXF provides
a central place for managing that trust by using rpatricia.

Older announcements on our mailing list could be harder
to find.
