Subject: [PATCH 4/4] Revert "document Rack::Chunked/ContentLength semi-requirements"
Date: Wed,  3 Aug 2016 03:19:06 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160803031906.14553-5-e@80x24.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20160803031906.14553-1-e@80x24.org>

Actually, I guess I misread, rack (starting at) 1.0 stopped
requiring Content-Length/Chunked headers but I never noticed.
Oh well.

This reverts commit 4968041a7e1ff90b920704f50fccb9e7968d0d99.

-=head1 CAVEATS
-
-yahns is strict about buggy, non-compliant Rack applications.
-Some existing servers work fine without "Content-Length" or
-"Transfer-Encoding: chunked" response headers enforced by Rack::Lint.
-Forgetting these headers with yahns causes clients to stall as they
-assume more data is coming.  Loading the Rack::ContentLength and/or
-Rack::Chunked middlewares will set the necessary response headers
-and fix your app.
