```

Special thanks go to all our contributors and users for helping make  
this release happen!

Below is the complete change log for this release, as compared to the  
last (devel) release, 1.2.8.3:

- upgraded LuaNginxModule to 0.8.2.

- upgraded SrcacheNginxModule to 0.21.

- feature: applied the invalid\_referer\_hash patch to the Nginx  
core to make the $invalid\_referer variable accessible in  
embedded dynamic languages like Perl and Lua. thanks Fry-kun for  
requesting this.

- updated the dtrace patch for the Nginx core.

OpenResty (aka. ngx\_openresty) is a full-fledged web application  
server by bundling the standard Nginx core, lots of 3rd-party Nginx  
modules and Lua libraries, as well as most of their external  
dependencies. See OpenResty’s homepage for details:

```
http://openresty.org/

```

We have been running extensive testing on our Amazon EC2 test cluster  
and ensure that all the components (including the Nginx core) play  
well together. The latest test report can always be found here:

Have fun!
