0.2.3

  • Removed circular references and added tests to detect them

  • Generate *_grpc.py stub files even if service definitions don’t exist in the .proto files

0.2.0

  • Fixed flow control functionality

  • BREAKING: Fixed “grpc-message” header encoding: unicode string -> utf-8 -> percent-encoding (RFC 3986, ascii subset). Previously solely utf-8 were used, which now will fail to decode, if you send non-ascii characters
