FRiCKLE pres. ngx_postgres

[Piotr Sikora]

Hi guys,
I'm thrilled to announce new release of ngx_postgres.

This is MAJOR update focused on new features and interoperability with 
number of 3rd party modules (including: ngx_http_auth_request_module, 
nginx-eval-module and ngx_lua). When combined with ngx_form_input or ngx_lua 
(for extracting values from client's request body), this module allows one 
to create fully RESTful webservices using only nginx.conf! And it's 
production-ready :)

This release is accompanied by the release of ngx_rds_json v0.10, which 
produces JSON responses for all 2xx status codes. This release is pretty 
much required for people wanting to use "postgres_rewrite" directive.


Distfiles and documentation are available at:

    * Fix serious bug that under certain conditions (query evaluated

      lead to segmentation fault on versions older than nginx-0.8.17
      (including nginx-0.7.x).

2010-06-30
    * When returning row or value, use Content-Type specified by
      "default_type" directive instead of "text/plain".

      (in "postgres_output" and "postgres_set" directives).
