        WebOb provides objects for HTTP requests and responses.  Specifically
        it does this by wrapping the `WSGI <http://wsgi.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>`_ request
        environment and response status/headers/app_iter(body).
        
        The request and response objects provide many conveniences for parsing
        HTTP request and forming HTTP responses.  Both objects are read/write:
        as a result, WebOb is also a nice way to create HTTP requests and
        parse HTTP responses.

        1.8.0rc1 (2018-01-01)
        ---------------------
        
        Compatability
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        - WebOb is no longer officially supported on Python 3.3 which was EOL'ed on
          2017-09-29.
        
        Backwards Incompatibilities
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        - Many changes have been made to the way WebOb does Accept handling, not just
          for the Accept header itself, but also for Accept-Charset, Accept-Encoding
          and Accept-Language. This was a `Google Summer of Code
          <https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/>`_ project completed by
          Whiteroses (https://github.com/whiteroses). Many thanks to Google for running
          GSoC, the Python Software Foundation for organising and a huge thanks to Ira
          for completing the work. See https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/338 and
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/335. Documentation is available at
          https://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/webob/en/master/api/webob.html
        
        - When calling a ``@wsgify`` decorated function, the default arguments passed
          to ``@wsgify`` are now used when called with the request, and not as a
          `start_response`
        
          .. code::
        
             def hello(req, name):
                 return "Hello, %s!" % name
             app = wsgify(hello, args=("Fred",))
        
             req = Request.blank('/')
             resp = req.get_response(app)  # => "Hello, Fred"
             resp2 = app(req) # => "Hello, Fred"
        
          Previously the ``resp2`` line would have failed with a ``TypeError``. With
          this change there is no way to override the default arguments with no
          arguments. See https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/203
        
        - When setting ``app_iter`` on a ``Response`` object the ``content_md5`` header
          is no longer cleared. This behaviour is odd and disallows setting the
          ``content_md5`` and then returning an iterator for chunked content encoded
          responses. See https://github.com/Pylons/webob/issues/86
        
        Experimental Features
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        These features are experimental and may change at any point in the future.
        
        - The cookie APIs now have the ability to set the SameSite attribute on a
          cookie in both ``webob.cookies.make_cookie`` and
          ``webob.cookies.CookieProfile``. See https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/255
        
        Bugfix
        ~~~~~~
        
        - Request.host_url, Request.host_port, Request.domain correctly parse IPv6 Host
          headers as provided by a browser. See
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/332
        
        - Request.authorization would raise ValueError for unusual or malformed header
          values. See https://github.com/Pylons/webob/issues/231
        
        - Allow unnamed fields in form data to be properly transcoded when calling
          request.decode with an alternate encoding. See
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/309
        
        - ``Response.__init__`` would discard ``app_iter`` when a ``Response`` had no
          body, this would cause issues when ``app_iter`` was an object that was tied
          to the life-cycle of a web application and had to be properly closed.
          ``app_iter`` is more advanced API for ``Response`` and thus even if it
          contains a body and is thus against the HTTP RFC's, we should let the users
          shoot themselves by returning a body. See
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/issues/305
