[ANN] unicorn 0.95.0 - we <3 Rainbows! and ponies too

E

Eric Wong

Unicorn is a HTTP server for Rack applications designed to only serve
fast clients on low-latency, high-bandwidth connections and take
advantage of features in Unix/Unix-like kernels. Slow clients should
only be served by placing a reverse proxy capable of fully buffering
both the the request and response in between Unicorn and slow clients.

Changes:

Mostly internal cleanups and documentation updates. Irrelevant
stacktraces from client disconnects/errors while reading
"rack.input" are now cleared to avoid unnecessary noise. If
user switching in workers is used, ownership of logs is now
preserved when reopening worker logs (send USR1 only to the the
master in this case). The timeout config no longer affects long
after_fork hooks or application startups.

New features include the addition of the :umask option for the
"listen" config directive and error reporting for non-portable
socket options.

No ponies have ever been harmed in our development.
