This release fixes a number of minor bugs. * Features: http://www.reahl.org * Installation: http://www.reahl.org/docs/current/tutorial/gettingstarted.d.html Reahl is a web application framework for Python programmers. With Reahl, programming is done purely in Python, using concepts familiar from GUI programming - like reusable Widgets and Events. There's no need for a programmer to know several different languages (HTML, JavaScript, template languages, etc) or to keep up with the tricks of these trades. The abstractions presented by Reahl relieve the programmer from the burden of dealing with the annoying problems of the web: security, accessibility, progressive enhancement (or graceful degradation) and browser quirks. Although a Reahl program benefits from having JavaScript available, it functions in the absence of JavaScript too. Search engines can crawl a Reahl program, and its pages can be bookmarked by browsers.

I hope this is the right mailing list to let interested party to know about a "minor" bug that i found in some WSGI server that are out there, that doesn't support absolute URI in an raw http request i.e. GET http://domain.com/path HTTP/1.1 I have created an issue for WGIREF http://bugs.python.org/issue21472, and i am waiting for feedback from cPython core developers, and most **importantly** this gist https://gist.github.com/mouadino/7930974 that show who support this feature and who doesn't.

FWIW i have already submitted a patch to eventlet where i did find this problem first, but apparently the eventlet guys doesn't want to support this for a reason that old client may not support this correctly, the same excuse is used by NGINX and Apache as it was explained to me by **temoto** from eventlet (check link https://github.com/eventlet/eventlet/issues/27). The reason why this is good to have is explained in the eventlet issue linked above. As a last remark i found it funny that in both my gist, this one and the other from absolute URI (Sadly i can't link emails, hmmm !), i found that cherrypy do the right thing in both cases, so kudos to the cherrypy guys :) HTH, -- Mouad Benchchaoui -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
