 ### Fixed
 
-- `ConnectionInfo::realip_remote_addr()` now handles IPv6 addresses from `Forwarded` header correctly. Previously, it sometimes returned the forwarded port as well.
+- Always remove port from return value of `ConnectionInfo::realip_remote_addr()` when handling IPv6 addresses. from the `Forwarded` header.
 - The `UrlencodedError::ContentType` variant (relevant to the `Form` extractor) now uses the 415 (Media Type Unsupported) status code in it's `ResponseError` implementation.
-- `HttpServer::method.max_connection_rate` now takes effect on any TLS implementation. Previously, the configuration was missing for rustls versions 0.22 and 0.23.
+- Apply `HttpServer::max_connection_rate()` setting when using rustls v0.22 or v0.23.
