Hello,

Today we are proud to announce the release of Rack 1.3.7.

= 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

* January 6th, 2013: Twenty eighth public release 1.3.7
  * Add warnings when users do not provide a session secret
  * Fix parsing performance for unquoted filenames
  * Updated URI backports
  * Fix URI backport version matching, and silence constant warnings
  * Correct parameter parsing with empty values
  * Correct rackup '-I' flag, to allow multiple uses
  * Correct rackup pidfile handling
  * Report rackup line numbers correctly
  * Fix request loops caused by non-stale nonces with time limits
  * Fix reloader on Windows
  * Prevent infinite recursions from Response#to_ary
  * Various middleware better conforms to the body close specification
  * Updated language for the body close specification
  * Additional notes regarding ECMA escape compatibility issues
  * Fix the parsing of multiple ranges in range headers
