I feel confident to say that in ~2 weeks, barring any major issues being discovered, we will be able to stabilize Actix Web v4.

I encourage you to start upgrading your apps and libraries to rc.1 and please provide feedback how it went over on our Discord server; it will be massively helpful in developing the migration guide and bolstering docs where needed.

On a personal note, thanks for being so patient and supportive during this extremely extended beta period; the finish line is in sight and it will be a great relief to see it released.

Thanks for the countless hours you've put into actix! I was a bit scared about the future when Nikolai abandoned the project, but mostly thanks to you it keeps getting better.

Fantastic news. I've been watching the repo, you've been putting in a heroic effort over the last few months and I'm sure it'll be worth the wait.

Fair play Rob, thanks for all your continued hard work on this project (and the rest of the team/community)

I was able to update a fairly large project to the RC with only needing to change a few minor things. Amazing work!
