[ANN] ngx_openresty stable version 1.2.3.8 released

[agentzh]

Hello, folks!

I am happy to announce the new stable version of ngx_openresty, 1.2.3.8:

   http://openresty.org/#Download

This release is exactly the same as the last development release, 1.2.3.7.

This is the final release based on the Nginx 1.2.3 core. The next
(development) release will be based on Nginx 1.2.4 (or later if
exists).

Also, I'll start the new 0.7.x release series for the ngx_lua module,
which features the new "light threads" API developed on the git
"thread" branch of the ngx_lua project. You can see more on ngx_lua's
"light threads" in the following post on the openresty-en mailing
list:

OpenResty (aka. ngx_openresty) is a full-fledged web application
server by bundling the standard Nginx core, lots of 3rd-party Nginx
modules, as well as most of their external dependencies. See
OpenResty's homepage for details:

    http://openresty.org/

We have been running extensive testing on our Amazon EC2 test cluster
and ensure that all the components (including the Nginx core) play
well together. The latest test report can always be found here:

Enjoy!
