        WebOb provides objects for HTTP requests and responses.  Specifically
        it does this by wrapping the `WSGI <http://wsgi.org>`_ 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.

        1.7.2 (2017-03-15)
        ------------------
        
        Bugfix
        ~~~~~~
        
        - 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
        
        1.7.1 (2017-01-16)
        ------------------
        
        Bugfix
        ~~~~~~
        
        - ``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
        
        
        1.7.0 (2016-12-22)
        ------------------
        
        Compatibility
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        - WebOb is no longer supported on Python 2.6 and PyPy3 (due to pip no longer
          supporting Python 3.2 even on PyPy)
        
        Backwards Incompatibility
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        - ``Response.content_type`` removes all existing Content-Type parameters, and
          if the new Content-Type is "texty" it adds a new charset (unless already
          provided) using the ``default_charset``. See
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/301
        
        - ``Response.set_cookie`` no longer accepts a key argument. This was deprecated
          in WebOb 1.5 and as mentioned in the deprecation, is being removed in 1.7
        
        - ``Response.__init__`` will no longer set the default Content-Type, nor
          Content-Length on Responses that don't have a body. This allows WebOb to
          return proper responses for things like `Response(status='204 No Content')`.
        
        - ``Response.text`` will no longer raise if the Content-Type does not have a
          charset, it will fall back to using the new ``default_body_encoding`. To get
          the old behaviour back please sub-class ``Response`` and set
          ``default_body_encoding`` to ``None``. See
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/287
        
        - WebOb no longer supports Chunked Encoding, this means that if you are using
          WebOb and need Chunked Encoding you will be required to have a proxy that
          unchunks the request for you. Please read
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/issues/279 for more background.
        
        Feature
        ~~~~~~~
        
        - ``Response`` has a new ``default_body_encoding`` which may be used to allow
          getting/setting ``Response.text`` when a Content-Type has no charset. See
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/287
        
        - ``webob.Request`` with any HTTP method is now allowed to have a body. This
          allows DELETE to have a request body for passing extra information. See
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/283 and
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/274
        
        - Add ``tell()`` to ``ResponseBodyFile`` so that it may be used for example for
          zipfile support. See https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/117
        
        - Allow the return from ``wsgify.middleware`` to be used as a decorator. See
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/228
        
        Bugfix
        ~~~~~~
        
        - Fixup ``cgi.FieldStorage`` on Python 3.x to work-around issue reported in
          Python bug report 27777 and 24764. This is currently applied for Python
          versions less than 3.7. See https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/294 and
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/300
        
        - ``Response.set_cookie`` now accepts ``datetime`` objects for the ``expires``
          kwarg and will correctly convert them to UTC with no tzinfo for use in
          calculating the ``max_age``. See https://github.com/Pylons/webob/issues/254
          and https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/292
        
        - Fixes ``request.PATH_SAFE`` to contain all of the path safe characters
          according to RFC3986. See https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/291
        
        - WebOb's exceptions will lazily read underlying variables when inserted into
          templates to avoid expensive computations/crashes when inserting into the
          template. This had a bad performance regression on Py27 because of the way
          the lazified class was created and returned. See
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/284
        
        - ``wsgify.__call__`` raised a ``TypeError`` with an unhelpful message, it will
          now return the ``repr`` for the wrapped function:
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/issues/119
        
        - ``Response.json``'s ``json.dumps``/``json.loads`` are now always UTF-8. It no
          longer tries to use the charset.
        
        - The ``Response.__init__`` will by default no longer set the Content-Type to
          the default if a ``headerlist`` is provided. This fixes issues whereby
          ``Request.get_response()`` would return a Response that didn't match the
          actual response. See https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/261 and
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/issues/205
        
        - Cleans up the remainder of the issues with the updated WebOb exceptions that
          were taught to return JSON in version 1.6. See
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/issues/237 and
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/issues/236
        
        - ``Response.from_file`` now parses the status line correctly when the status
          line contains an HTTP with version, as well as a status text that contains
          multiple white spaces (e.g HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found). See
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/issues/250
        
        - ``Response`` now has a new property named ``has_body`` that may be used to
          interrogate the ``Response`` to find out if ``Response.body`` is or isn't
          set.
        
          This is used in the exception handling code so that if you use a WebOb HTTP
          Exception and pass a generator to ``app_iter`` WebOb won't attempt to read
          the whole thing and instead allows it to be returned to the WSGI server. See
          https://github.com/Pylons/webob/pull/259
