October 18, 2022

It is now done! In v19R7, compressed responses, chunked responses, and redirections functionalities are now complete.

As a bonus, we also added a new way to log HTTP requests. And as it’s helpful to everyone, this new logging is available to the new HTTP classes as well as for the legacy syntax.
