update to 1.8.5:
- Fixed one last remaining invalid escape sequence in a docstring.
- Response.content_type now accepts unicode strings on Python 2 and encodes
them to latin-1. See https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/389 and
https://github.com/Pylons/webob/issues/388
- Accept header classes now support a .copy() function that may be used to
create a copy. This allows ``create_accept_header`` and other like functions
to accept an pre-existing Accept header. See
https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/386 and
https://github.com/Pylons/webob/issues/385
- Some backslashes introduced with the new accept handling code were causing
DeprecationWarnings upon compiling the source to pyc files, all of the
backslashes have been reigned in as appropriate, and users should no longer
see DeprecationWarnings for invalid escape sequence. See
https://github.com/Pylons/webob/issues/384
- ``acceptparse.AcceptValidHeader``, ``acceptparse.AcceptInvalidHeader``, and
``acceptparse.AcceptNoHeader`` will now always ignore offers that do not
match the required media type grammar when calling ``.acceptable_offers()``.
Previous versions raised a ``ValueError`` for invalid offers in
``AcceptValidHeader`` and returned them as acceptable in the others.
See https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/372
- Add Request.remote_host, exposing REMOTE_HOST environment variable.
- Added ``acceptparse.Accept.parse_offer`` to codify what types of offers
are compatible with ``acceptparse.AcceptValidHeader.acceptable_offers``,
``acceptparse.AcceptMissingHeader.acceptable_offers``, and
``acceptparse.AcceptInvalidHeader.acceptable_offers``. This API also
normalizes the offer with lowercased type/subtype and parameter names.
