The client + is then supposed to silently retry the request without bothering + the user. This should significantly reduce the frequency of the + "No server or forwarder data received" error message many users + reported. +- More reliable detection of prematurely closed client sockets + with keep-alive enabled. +- FEATURE_CONNECTION_KEEP_ALIVE is decoupled from + FEATURE_CONNECTION_SHARING and now available on + all platforms. +- Improved handling of POST requests on reused connections. + Should fix problems with stalled connections after submitting + form data with some browser configurations. +- Fixed various latency calculation issues. +- Allows the client to pass NTLM authentication requests to a + forwarding proxy. This was already assumed and hinted to work + in 3.0.13 beta but actually didn't. Now it's confirmed to work + with IE, Firefox and Chrome. + Thanks to Francois Botha and Wan-Teh Chang +- Fixed a calculation problem if receiving the server headers + takes more than two reads, that could cause Privoxy to terminate + the connection prematurely. Reported by Oliver. +- Compiles again on platforms such as OpenBSD and systems + using earlier glibc version that don't support AI_ADDRCONFIG. + Anonymously submitted in #2872591. +- A bunch of MS VC project files and Suse and Redhat RPM spec + files have been removed as they were no longer maintained for + quite some time. +- Overly long action lines are properly rejected with a proper + error message. Previously they would be either rejected as + invalid or cause a core dump through abort(). +- Already timed-out connections are no longer temporarily remembered. + They weren't reused anyway, but wasted a socket slot. +- len refers to the number of bytes actually read which might + differ from the ones received. Adjust log messages accordingly. +- The optional JavaScript on the CGI page uses encodeURIComponent() + instead of escape() which doesn't encode all characters that matter. + Anonymously reported in #2832722. +- Fix gcc45 warnings in decompress_iob(). +- Various log message improvements. +- Privoxy-Regression-Test supports redirect tests. +- Privoxy-Log-Parser can gather some connection statistics. + *** Version 3.0.14 beta *** - The latency is taken into account when evaluating whether or not to
