Rails - Apr 2006 - Mongrel Web Server 0.3.12.2 -- Iron Mongrel (Parser Fix)

Hello Everyone,

This is an ultra quick announce for a bug fix release to Mongrel.  It
corrects a small change in the HTTP parser that causes an error when people
use multi-part forms in a certain way.  The fix is literally 4 characters
changed in the parser specification.

Everyone should update to this release and let me know if their forms act
really weird.  I''ve tested various upload types but some folks seem to
be
doing original upload encodings.  This parser should catch them
consistently.

You can upgrade using:

  gem upgrade

Or using:

  gem install mongrel

I just posted the gems so it might take a bit to get the fix.
