Hello,
Today we are proud to announce the release of Rack 1.4.2.
= Rack, a modular Ruby webserver interface
Rack provides a minimal, modular and adaptable interface for developing web
applications in Ruby. By wrapping HTTP requests and responses in the simplest
way possible, it unifies and distills the API for web servers, web frameworks,
and software in between (the so-called middleware) into a single method call.
The exact details of this are described in the Rack specification, which all
Rack applications should conform to.
== Changes
