Hello!

First version of the 1.2.x stable branch has been released.  
The 1.2.0 version incorporates many new features developed in  
the 1.1.x branch, including the following:

- support for keepalive connections to upstream servers,
- consolidation of multiple simultaneous requests to upstream  
servers if caching is used,
- support for multiple request and connection limits used  
simultaneously,
- reduced memory consumption in various edge cases like  
handling of long-lived requests.
