Hi all,

LuaSocket version 2.0.1 is now  available for download! It
is compatible with  Lua 5.0 and Lua 5.1, and has been tested
on Windows XP, Linux, and Mac OS X. Chances are it works
well on most UNIX systems.

Binaries should be shortly available from LuaForge.

What's New

This is just a bug-fix/update release.

    * Updated: now using compat-5.1r5;

    * Improved: http.request is more robust to malformed
      URLs (Adrian Sietsma);

    * Improved: the simple http.request interface sends a
      "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" header
      (William Trenker);

    * Improved: http.request is robust to evil servers that
      send inappropriate 100-continue messages (David Burgess);

    * Fixed: http.request was using the old host header during
      redirects (Florian Berger);

    * Fixed: sample unix.c had fallen through the cracks
      during development (Matthew Percival);

    * Fixed: error code was not being propagated correctly
      in ftp.lua (David Burgess).

Have fun,
Diego.
