Specify required Flup version in documentation

[Antti Kaihola]

The ​FastCGI page in the documentation states:

Make sure to use the latest Subversion snapshot of flup,
as some users have reported stalled pages with older flup versions.

This note was added in [3211] on June 26, 2006, that is, over a year ago. Surely the features in the trunk version of Flup at that time have later made it to a release? Is Flup 0.5 tried and tested?

Allan Saddi released flup 1.0 to the cheeseshop a few days ago
​http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/flup/1.0

I have been using 0.5 from ​http://www.saddi.com/software/flup/dist/flup-0.5-py2.4.egg for a few months without problems.

Since this is the main version of 0.5, and it is more recent than the problem report, I believe we can remove the warning, noting that people are succesfully using 0.5.

I will write some documentation to that effect.

I am attaching a patch to remove the comment, since

• We don't know what the problem was
• We don't know exactly which versions had the problem
• The versions from the time the problem was reported are no longer available for download

so IMO the current state is worse than nothing , and we cannot write anything better.
