 The exact details of this are described in the Rack specification,
 which all Rack applications should conform to.
 
-== Future specification changes

-PLEASE NOTE: In versions of Rack LATER than 0.4, the following
-changes will be commited to the Rack specification:
-
-* 1xx, 204 and 304 status codes MUST not contain a Content-Type.
-* A valid Content-Length header MUST be provided for non 1xx, 204 and 304
-  responses with a Transfer-Encoding of "identity" (default).
-  The Content-Length MUST be the same as the sum of the byte-sizes of
-  the chunks.
-* The REQUEST_METHOD may be any HTTP token.
-
-Internal Rack modules have been updated to follow this behavior, but
-the Rack 0.4 Lint does NOT check it yet for compatibility reasons.
-Please update your libraries accordingly.

 == Supported web servers
 
 The included *handlers* connect all kinds of web servers to Rack:
 * Mongrel
 * EventedMongrel
+* SwiftipliedMongrel
 * WEBrick
 * FCGI
 * CGI
 * SCGI
 * LiteSpeed
+* Thin
 
 These web servers include Rack handlers in their distributions:

 Any valid Rack app will run the same on all these handlers, without
 changing anything.
