Dear all, I'm happy to announce the release of libmicrohttpd 0.9.27 and the integration of libmicrospdy into our Subversion repository (but not into the current release).
GNU libmicrohttpd is a small C library that is supposed to make it easy to run an HTTP server as part of another application. GNU libmicrohttpd is fully HTTP 1.1 compliant and supports IPv6. Finally, GNU libmicrohttpd is fast, portable and has a simple API and (without TLS support and other optional features) a small binary size (~32k). libmicrohttpd 0.9.27 adds the 'MHD_quiesce_daemon' API for suspending operations while finishing ongoing connections and incorporates a few performance (better page size for POLL, possibility of fewer select calls) and documentation (new examples, better comments) improvements. You can download GNU libmicrohttpd from * ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libmicrohttpd/ and all GNU FTP mirrors. * Our Subversion repository at https://gnunet.org/svn/libmicrohttpd/ Please report bugs to our bugtracker at https://gnunet.org/bugs/. The documentation (including a reference manual and tutorial) can be found at http://www.gnu.org/software/libmicrohttpd/. More importantly, right after the release, I merged Andrey Uzunov's libmicrospdy library into the GNU libmicrohttpd tree. libmicrospdy is an early (incomplete, alpha-quality) implementation of the SPDY (draft 3) protocol, which is the designated basis for HTTP 2.0. We designed the libmicrospdy-API along the same lines as that of libmicrohttpd, thus offering the same developer experience for both libraries. libmicrospdy currently only supports "GET" requests using the 'external select' execution mode. We hope that with the help of the community, we can eventually make libmicrospdy just as feature-complete and stable as libmicrohttpd. Happy hacking!
