* 'listen' now supports optionnal address:port-range lists
* 'bind' introduced to add new listen addresses
* fixed a bug which caused a session to be kept established on a server till
it timed out if the client closed during the DATA phase.
* the port part of each server address can now be empty to make the proxy
connect to the server on the same port it was connected to, be an absolute
unsigned number to reflect a single port (as in older versions), or an
explicitly signed number (+N/-N) to indicate that this offset must be
applied to the port the proxy was connected to, when connecting to the
server.
* the 'port' server option allows the user to specify a different
health-check port than the service one. It is mandatory when only relative
ports have been specified and check is required. By default, the checks are
sent to the service port.
* new 'defaults' section which is rather similar to 'listen' except that all
values are only used as default values for future 'listen' sections, until
a new 'defaults' resets them. At the moment, server options, regexes,
cookie names and captures cannot be set in the 'defaults' section.
* Makefile now optimizes for Ultrasparc by default on Solaris/Sparc
* large documentation updates and fixes
* new 'tests' directory with some debug files
* haproxy was NOT RFC compliant because it was case-sensitive on HTTP
"Cookie:" and "Set-Cookie:" headers. This caused JVM 1.4 to fail on
cookie persistence because it uses "cookie:". Two memcmp() have been
replaced with strncasecmp().
* added the haproxy2html.sh script
* removed the now useless NOTES file
* made pcre-config quiet in the makefile.
* fixed multi-cookie handling in client request to allow clean deletion
in insert+indirect mode. Now, only the server cookie is deleted and not
all the header. Should now be compliant to RFC2109.
* added a "nocache" option to "cookie" to specify that we explicitly want
to add a "cache-control" header when we add a cookie.
It is also possible to add an "Expires: <old-date>" to keep compatibility
with old/broken caches.
* some doc and examples cleanups
* option "dontlognull"
* fixed "double space" bug in config parser
* fixed an uninitialized server field in case of dispatch
with no existing server which could cause a segfault during
logging.
* the pid logged was always the father's, which was wrong for daemons.
* fixed wrong level "LOG_INFO" for message "proxy started".
* http logging is now complete :
- ip:port, date, proxy, server
- req_time, conn_time, hdr_time, tot_time
- status, size, request
* source address binding
