[16:23:21] <siiky> (prob no one cares but...) woop found the backwards incompatibility commits! https://github.com/golang/go/commit/e6dda19888180c5159460486d30c0412e4980748 & https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/commit/d59730f51eb537a5776091503887edb76bbc1bf6
[16:23:55] *** Quits: Zipheir (~wcm@98.4.178.27) (Quit: Eadem mutata resurgo.)
[16:24:41] <siiky> so HTTP servers using the module net/http to parse query strings no longer accept semicolons as separators starting with Go v1.17
[16:28:32] <siiky> the message of the Go commit is vague: "Semicolons are no longer valid separators" -- "valid" in the world, or "valid" to Go?!
[16:49:00] <teiresias> Probably because whatwg (the organization that rubber stamps whatever browser vendors do and calls it a standard).  If I read their URL(sic) spec right, they standardize & as the query separator.
[16:51:58] *** Joins: s-liao-2000 (~s-liao-20@101.86.164.158)
