Special thanks to the following people for their useful contributions : - Aleksandar Lazic and Klaus Wagner : ability to learn application cookies. - Cameron Simpson : code reviews and many cleanups. - Dan Zinngrabe : Makefile for MacOS 10.4 / Darwin. - Sin Yu : preliminary virtual host support and rbtree for the scheduler. - Marcus Rueckert : support for username/groupname. - Bryan Germann : option to exempt some sources from x-forwarded-for. - Fabrice Dulaunoy : health-checks on different addresses This list is quite incomplete and very outdated. For more up-to-date information please look at http://haproxy.1wt.eu/contrib.html, it lists not only significant code contributions (features, fixes), but also time or money donations. Note to contributors: it's very handy when patches comes with a properly formated subject. Try to put one of the following words between brackets to indicate the importance of the patch followed by a short description: [MINOR] minor fix, very low risk of impact [MEDIUM] medium risk, may cause unexpected regressions of low importance or which may quickly be discovered [MAJOR] major risk of hidden regression. This happens when I rearrange large parts of code, when I play with timeouts, with variable initializations, etc... [BUG] fix for a minor or medium-level bug. [CRITICAL] medium-term reliability or security is at risk, an upgrade is absolutely required. [RELEASE] release a new version [BUILD] fix build issues. If you could build, no upgrade required. [CLEANUP] code cleanup, silence of warnings, etc... theorically no impact [TESTS] added regression testing configuration files or scripts [DOC] documentation updates, no need to upgrade [LICENSE] licensing updates (may impact distro packagers) Example: "[DOC] document options forwardfor to logasap"
