Special thanks go to all the contributors for making this happen!

Below is the complete change log for this release, as compared to the
last (devel) release, 1.4.2.3:

 *   upgraded SetMiscNginxModule to 0.22.

     *   bugfix: we did not escape "\0", "\z", "\b", and "\t"
         properly in set_quote_sql_str according to the MySQL quoting
         rules. thanks Siddon Tang for the report.

 *   upgraded LuaNginxModule to 0.8.8.

     *   feature: added new option "always_forward_body" to
         ngx.location.capture() and ngx.location.capture_multi(),
         which controls whether to always forward the parent
         request's request body to the subrequest (even when the
         subrequest is not of the POST or PUT request method). thanks
         Matthieu Tourne for the request.

     *   feature: now timeout errors in tcpsock:receive() and
         tcpsock:receiveuntil() no longer automatically close the
         current cosocket object (for both upstream and downstream
         connections). thanks Aviram Cohen for the original patch.

     *   bugfix: we did not escape "\0", "\z", "\t", and "\b"
         properly in ngx.quote_sql_str(). thanks Siddon Tang for the
         report.

     *   bugfix: Lua backtrace dumps upon uncaught Lua exceptions did
         not work with the standard Lua 5.1 interpreter when the
         backtrace was deeper than 22 levels.

     *   change: now we just dump the top 22 levels in the backtrace
         for uncaught Lua exceptions for the sake of simplicity.

     *   change: we now limit the number of nested coroutines in the
         backtrace dump for uncaught Lua exceptions by 5.

     *   optimize: grouped the Lua string concatenation operations
         when constructing the backtrace string for uncaught Lua
         exceptions.

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