2011-03-27 Release 6.02
This is the release where we try to help the CPAN-toolchain be able to install
the modules required for https-support in LWP. We have done this by unbundling
the LWP::Protocol::https module from the libwww-perl distribution. In order to
have https support you now need to install (or depend on) 'LWP::Protocol::https'
and then this will make sure that all the prerequsite modules comes along.
See [RT#66838].
This release also removes the old http10 modules that has really been
deprecated since v5.60. These should have been removed at the v6.00 jump, but
I forgot.

2011-03-08 Release 6.00
Unbundled all modules not in the LWP:: namespace from the libwww-perl
distribution. The new broken out CPAN distribtions are File-Listing,
HTML-Form, HTTP-Cookies, HTTP-Daemon, HTTP-Date, HTTP-Message, HTTP-Negotiate,
Net-HTTP, and WWW-RobotRules. libwww-perl-6 require these to be installed.
This release also drops the unmaintained lwp-rget script from the distribution.
Perl v5.8.8 or better is now required. For older versions of perl please stay
with libwww-perl-5.837.
For https://... default to verified connections with require IO::Socket::SSL
and Mozilla::CA modules to be installed. Old behaviour can be requested by
setting the PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME environment variable to 0. The
LWP::UserAgent got new ssl_opts method to control this as well.
Support internationalized URLs from command line scripts and in the proxy
environment variables.
The lwp-dump script got new --request option.
The lwp-request script got new -E option, contributed by Tony Finch.
Protocol handlers and callbacks can raise HTTP::Response objects as exceptions.
This will abort the current request and make LWP return the raised response.

2009-07-07 Release 5.829
This release removes callback handlers that were left over on the returned
HTTP::Responses. This was problematic because it created reference loops
preventing the Perl garbage collector from releasing their memory. Another
problem was that Storable by default would not serialize these objects any
more.
This release also adds support for locating HTML::Form inputs by id or class
attribute; for instance $form->value("#foo", 42) will set the value on the
input with the ID of "foo".

2009-06-15 Release 5.827
The main news this time is better detection of what character set the document

_______________________________________________________________________________
2008-10-20 Release 5.819
Release 5.815 to 5.818 had a severe bug that sometimes made LWP not
collect all data for the responses it received. This release is
strongly recommended as an upgrade for those releases.
Gisle Aas (2):
Don't override $Net::HTTPS::SSL_SOCKET_CLASS if it's already set.
Wrong content handlers would sometimes be skipped [RT#40187]
_______________________________________________________________________________
2008-10-16 Release 5.818
Main news in this release is the addition of the dump() method to the
request and response objects. If found that I often ended up printing
$resp->as_string for debugging and then regretting after the terminal
got into a strange mode or just kept on scrolling for the longest
time.
Gisle Aas (8):
Use deflate compression instead of gzip for the test
Simplify; Get rid of the $USE_STORABLE_DCLONE configuration
Add dump method to HTTP::Message.

Slaven Rezic (1):
clone implemented in terms of Storable::dclone [RT#39611]
_______________________________________________________________________________
2008-10-10 Release 5.817
This is the release where I played around with Devel::NYTProf to
figure where time was actually spent during the processing of requests
with LWP. The methods that manipulated header objects stood out, so
this release contains a few tweaks to make those parts faster.
I also figured a few convenience methods to encode and decode the
content of request/response objects would be in order.
Gisle Aas (16):
Should store "wire" headers field names with _ without translation.
Test HTTP::Request->parse().
Restore pre-5.815 behaviour of returning "400 Bad Request" [RT#39694]
Rename the HTTP::Status constants to have HTTP_ prefix

Oops, release 5.815 broke download-to-file on Windows.
Gisle Aas (2):
Add missing binmode() [RT#39668]
Doc tweaks
_______________________________________________________________________________
2008-09-24 Release 5.815
The main change this time is the introduction of handlers to drive the
processing of requests in LWP::UserAgent. You can also register your
own handlers for modifying and processing requests or responses on
their way, which I think is a much more flexible approach that trying
to subclass LWP::UserAgent to customize it. If we have had these
early on then the LWP::UserAgent API could have been so much simpler
as the effect of most current attributes can easily be set up with
trivial handlers.
Also thanks to contributions by Bron Gondwana LWP's Basic/Digest
authenticate modules now registers handlers which allow them to
automatically fill in the Authorization headers without first taking
the round-trip of a 401 response when LWP knows the credentials for a
given realm.
Gisle Aas (23):
We don't need to build the docs to run the tests.
Style tweaks.
The jigsaw service isn't up to much good these days.
HTTP::Cookies produces warnings for undefined cookie param names [RT#38480]
Typo fix; HTTP::Message will never include x-bzip2 in Accept-Encoding [RT#38617]

Release 5.808
Get rid of t/live/validator test. Too much JavaScript madness
for it to be a sane LWP test.
2007-07-31 Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

Apply patch correction from CPAN RT #26152
More laxed t/live/validator test.
2007-07-19 Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>
Release 5.806
Added progress callback to LWP::UserAgent.
HTTP::Daemon didn't avoid content in responses to HEAD requests
Add support for HTTP Expect header to HTTP::Daemon (CPAN RT #27933)
Fix t/base/message.t so tests are skipped if Encode is not
installed. (CPAN RT #25286)
Add HTML::Tagset as a prerequisite to Makefile.PL

Added chunked test by Andreas J. Koenig
2005-12-08 Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>
Release 5.805
HTTP::Date: The str2time function returned wrong values for
years in the early 20th century, because timelocal() actually
expects the year to be provided on a different scale than what
localtime() returns.
HTTP::Headers can now be constructed with field names that repeat.
The $h->header function now also accept repeating field
names and can also remove headers if passed undef as value.
HTML::Form: The parse method now takes hash style optional
arguments and the old verbose behaviour is now off by default.
HTML::Form: Accept <select multiple=""> for compatibility with
other browsers. Patch by Josh Rai <josh@rai.name>.
HTML::Form: Sane handling of 'disabled' for ListInput.
Based on patch by Joao Lopes <developer@st3tailor.com.br>.
HTTP::Negotiate: Fixed matching of partial language tags.
Patch contributed by Dan Kubb.
HTTP::Response: The as_string method now returns a status line
that doesn't add the "official" code name in the message
field. This improves the ability to round-trip response objects
via HTTP::Response->parse($res->as_string) and makes the first
line of the string returned agree with $res->status_line.
Net::HTTP: The host attribute can now be set undef in
order to suppress this header for HTTP/1.0 requests.
Net::HTTP: The default Host: header does not include the
port number if it is the default (80 for plain HTTP). Some
servers get confused by this.
Net::HTTP: Ignore bogus Content-Length headers. Don't get
confused by leading or trailing whitespace.
LWP::Protocol::http: More efficient sending of small PUT/POST
requests by trying harder to pass off the whole request in a
single call to syswrite.
lwp-request now give better error messages if you used the
-o option without having the HTML-Tree distribution installed.
Also document this dependency.
2005-12-06 Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>
Release 5.804
HTTP::Message->parse did not work when the first line of the body
was something that looked like a header.
HTTP::Header::Auth needs HTTP::Headers to be loaded before
it replace its functions.
LWP::Protocol::nntp improvements by Ville Skyttä <ville.skytta@iki.fi>:
- Support the nntp: scheme.
- Support hostname in news: and nntp: URIs.
- Close connection and preserve headers also in non-OK responses.
- HEAD support for URIs identifying a newsgroup.
- Comment spelling fixes.
Fix quotes in Net::HTTP example.

Makefile.PL: Set name to LWP so that the .packlist ends up in the
expected place.
2004-12-11 Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>
Release 5.803
HTTP::Message: $mess->decoded_content sometimes had the side
effect of destroying $mess->content.
HTTP::Message: $mess->decoded_content failed for
"Content-Encoding: deflate" if the content was not in the
zlib-format as specified for the HTTP protocol. Microsoft got
this wrong, so we have to support raw deflate bytes as well.
HTTP::Response->parse don't require the protocol to be
specified any more. This allows HTTP::Response->parse($resp->as_string)
to round-trip. Patch by Harald Joerg <haj@oook.m.uunet.de>.
HTTP::Response: $resp->base might now return undef. Previously
it would croak if there was no associated request. Based on
patch by Harald Joerg <haj@oook.m.uunet.de>.
HTML::Form now support <label> for check- and radio boxes.
Patch contributed by Dan Kubb <dan.kubb@onautopilot.com>.
Make HTTP::Daemon subclassable, patch by Kees Cook <kees@osdl.org>.
lwp-download allow directory to save into to be specified.
Patch by Radoslaw Zielinski <radek@karnet.pl>.
lwp-download will validate filename derived from server
controlled data and will fail if something looks not
quite right.
2004-11-30 Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>
Release 5.802
The HTTP::Message object now has a decoded_content() method.
This will return the content after any Content-Encodings and
charsets have been decoded.
Compress::Zlib is now a prerequisite module.
HTTP::Request::Common: The POST() function created an invalid
Content-Type header for file uploads with no parameters.
Net::HTTP: Allow Transfer-Encoding with trailing whitespace.
<http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=3929>
Net::HTTP: Don't allow empty content to be treated as a valid
HTTP/0.9 response.
<http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=4581>
<http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=6883>
File::Protocol::file: Fixup directory links in HTML generated
for directories. Patch by Moshe Kaminsky <kaminsky@math.huji.ac.il>.
Makefile.PL will try to discover misconfigured systems that
can't talk to themselves and disable tests that depend on this.
Makefile.PL will now default to 'n' when asking about whether
to install the "GET", "HEAD", "POST" programs. There has been
too many name clashes with these common names.
2004-11-12 Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>
Release 5.801
HTTP::Message improved content/content_ref interaction. Fixes
DYNAMIC_FILE_UPLOAD and other uses of code content in requests.
HTML::Form:
