Hi all,

one important thing of 1.5 is (and it may be for others, too)
the support of SSL in HAProxy itself. 

If you feel SSL support being stable I would really like to
see a release. This is THE main reason for 1.5.
Please don't put the burdon of patching relevant fixes
to the current users. (It's not patching, but filtering which
patches are relevant).

Best regards
Andreas Mock

I suspect Willy doesn't have a fixed date for 1.5 becoming stable. I believe he 
would like to introduce full server side keepalive in 1.5, but it will probably 
require some architectural modifications and it will likely introduce new 
regressions (and take some time, of course).

So yes, 1.5 will probably introduce a few bugs before becoming stable.
That doesn't mean the current 1.5 is not reliable, but there is a good chance 
of new regressions with new features and code reorganizations coming in.


What is your use case exactly? Do you need to deploy a single solution or do 
you need to implement this in a commercial product?

You could for example branch off the current 1.5 tree and only merge relevant 
bugfixes from upstream, until it 1.5 becomes stable. But that means you need to 
maintain a separate code branch.
