Revision history for Unblock-WebSocket

0.02  (unreleased)

    - Add an attached host transport to established Client and Server.
      Keep the manual output mode and private native ABI unchanged.
    - Define complete-buffer acceptance, congestion/resume signals,
      producer on_drain and graceful finish/abort ownership.
    - Prevent recursive output delivery into host send callbacks.
    - Add regressions for native and Perl backends, compression,
      Close handling, congestion, EOF and transport errors.
    - Add HTTP/1.1 Upgrade and HTTP/2 Extended CONNECT integration
      tests; exercise a live HTTP/3 QUIC/TLS handoff in CI.
    - Keep the Linux, macOS and Windows matrix, distribution tests
      and full Autobahn conformance workflow.
    - Rewrite the README, transport integration guide, and public POD
      around simple client/server examples and clear ownership rules.
    - Add a runnable opening-handshake example and run all three
      memory-only examples during CI.
    - Give every public package an explicit matching 0.02 version.

0.01  2026-10-04

    - Begin standalone platform- and event-loop-neutral WebSocket engine.
    - Add portable client and server byte-stream protocol engines.
    - Add framing, masking, fragmentation, UTF-8, Ping/Pong, and Close handling.
    - Add Uniform::HTTP handshake support for HTTP/1.1 Upgrade and HTTP/2 or
      HTTP/3 Extended CONNECT.
    - Define a private versioned native-adapter ABI for zero-copy-capable transports.
    - Add a vendored bq_websocket native engine with portable secure random masking.
    - Add Linux, macOS, and Windows CI for the native core.
    - Use the native engine by default behind the public client/server API while
      retaining the Perl engine as a differential reference backend.
    - Port RFC 6455 parser vectors, UTF-8 edge cases, protocol-error mappings,
      and close lifecycle regressions into standalone in-memory tests.
    - Add callback-order and handshake rejection/subprotocol regression coverage.
    - Preserve RFC 3629 Unicode noncharacters in the portable UTF-8 path while
      still rejecting surrogates and values above U+10FFFF.
    - Correct invalid UTF-8 Close reasons to use Close 1007 in the Perl backend.
    - Add native rejected-Close memory-lifetime regressions for ownership safety.
    - Add a repository-only Autobahn client/server author harness using blocking
      socket adapters around the public byte API.
    - Keep repository infrastructure and author tests out of the CPAN manifest.
    - Fix generated client-handshake nonce validation and add a regression for
      the real secure-random path.
    - Preserve a valid pre-error application response before the protocol Close
      when a later frame in the same native input batch is malformed.
    - Add incremental native RFC 3629 validation for fail-fast UTF-8 rejection
      across fragment boundaries and chopped frame input.
    - Reach strict selected Autobahn RFC 6455 conformance in both directions:
      298 OK, 0 NON-STRICT, 3 INFORMATIONAL out of 301 cases.
    - Require Uniform::HTTP 0.05 and use its FastPath view for read-only
      inspection of exact canonical handshake messages, with the portable
      Uniform contract retained for subclasses and adapters.
    - Begin RFC 7692 with a portable permessage-deflate codec using raw DEFLATE,
      context takeover, RSV1 framing, and decompressed message-size limits.
    - Add native RSV1/compressed-message support so permessage-deflate keeps
      bq_websocket framing, masking, and fragment reassembly when XS is available
      while sharing the same portable DEFLATE codec.
    - Negotiate RFC 7692 permessage-deflate across HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, and HTTP/3,
      including context-takeover and window-bit parameters plus fallback offers.
    - Export negotiated compression through connection_options() so handshake
      state can configure Client/Server without coupling them to the HTTP engine.
    - Enable Autobahn compression sections 12 and 13 in the repository-only
      author harness for full RFC 7692 conformance work.
    - Support an 8-bit RFC 7692 compressor window using Huffman-only raw
      DEFLATE so zlib never emits a distance reference beyond the negotiated
      256-byte window.
    - Support valueless client_max_window_bits offers and treat a numeric client
      value as an RFC 7692 preference hint rather than a response ceiling.
    - Extend the private native ABI append-only with extension configuration and
      flagged input/send operations while preserving the original ABI-v1 prefix.
    - Advertise full client compression capabilities in the repository-only
      Autobahn harness and require all 517 RFC 6455 + RFC 7692 cases per
      direction.
    - Add native compression error-path regressions for illegal RSV1 placement,
      malformed DEFLATE, and compressed pre-error response ordering.
    - Accept quoted RFC 7692 window-bit parameter values after unquoting and
      validating the numeric value.
    - Add repository-only public message-path benchmarks for Perl/native
      framing with and without permessage-deflate.
    - Record portable 517-case Autobahn baseline: server 514 OK / 3
      INFORMATIONAL with zero failures; client capability-gap run 442 OK / 72
      UNIMPLEMENTED / 3 INFORMATIONAL.
    - Accept a server client_max_window_bits response above the client's numeric
      hint and use the response value as the agreed compressor limit.
    - Remove the obsolete Encode prerequisite after the portable UTF-8 path
      moved to direct Perl UTF-8 handling.
    - Document the HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, HTTP/3, compression, FastPath, and
      established Client/Server workflows in the public POD.
    - Reach full native 517-case Autobahn compression conformance in both
      directions: 514 OK, 0 NON-STRICT, 0 failures, 3 INFORMATIONAL.
    - Record same-run public message-path benchmark results comparing Perl and
      native framing with and without permessage-deflate.
    - Remove the unnecessary Test::More runtime prerequisite; the minimum
      supported Perl already provides it for the test suite.
    - Add family-style README badges, installation guidance, backpressure
      notes, and a complete established Client/Server API summary in public POD.
    - Keep generated WebSocket.c out of future manifests and source
      distributions.
    - Complete the 0.01 release audit with four-platform CI, POD, distcheck,
      disttest, full 517-case Autobahn conformance, and benchmark validation.
