+Cowboy `2.7.0` has been released!
+
+Cowboy 2.7 improves the HTTP/2 code with optimizations
+around the sending of DATA and WINDOW_UPDATE frames;
+graceful shutdown of the connection when the client is
+going away; and rate limiting mechanisms. New options
+and mechanisms have also been added to control the
+amount of memory Cowboy ends up using with both HTTP/1.1
+and HTTP/2. Much of this work was done to address
+HTTP/2 CVEs about potential denial of service.
+
+In addition, many of the experimental features introduced
+in previous releases have been marked stable and are now
+documented. These include the commands-based Websocket
+handler interface; the metrics and tracer stream handlers;
+and the ability to change options on a per-stream basis
+(for example idle timeouts).
+
+This is the first Cowboy version that is compatible with
+the upcoming Ranch 2.0. Cowboy 2.7 will use Ranch 1.7.1
+by default.
+
+Cowboy 2.0 requires Erlang/OTP 20 or above and is tested
+and supported on Linux, FreeBSD, macOS and Windows.
+
+A complete
+list of changes can be found in the migration guide:
+https://ninenines.eu/docs/en/cowboy/2.7/guide/migrating_from_2.6/[Migrating from Cowboy 2.6 to 2.7].
+
+I have more free time available for consulting or for
+paid open source development at the moment. If you
+are interested, drop me an email at mailto:[email protected][[email protected]].
+I have gathered that there's interest in a pure Erlang GRPC
+implementation, and there's also QUIC and HTTP/3 that will
+be ready soon, for examples of projects I'd be interested in
+working on.
+
+You can donate to this project via
+https://salt.bountysource.com/teams/ninenines[BountySource].
+These funds are used to pay for additional servers for
+testing.
+
+As usual, feedback is appreciated, and issues or
+questions should be sent via Github tickets. Thanks!
