We don't like to present timelines because it generally doesn't work
out as we plan. The original plan informally had ESUG 2007 as a
release date which turned into ESUG 2007 as beta. Now it looks as if
the whole redirection stuff will not be fixed before ESUG. You'd have
to ask Lukas how long he thinks I takes him to fix it. If we integrate
the url refactoring that would take some additional time and has the
potential to introduce some destabilization. Personally I'm for
dropping stuff from the 2.8 todo list and postponing it to 2.9 but
that's not a decision I can make alone.

We're working on getting that set up with 2.7 and are running into some fairly significant obstacles with the whole WAStreamingResponse setup. I have yet to review the 2.8 version to see if anything has changed there, so I didn't want to start before wrapping my head around that. Sounds like I better get to it sooner than later.

Response streaming tends to work really bad together with
continutations (WATask, "clever" decorations like
WABasicAuthentication ....). Honestly I don't know how much action
WAStreamingResponse has seen.
