Hello Apache-team,

on  the  http://www.apache.org/docs/new_features_1_3.html  you  give a
link  to   http://www.apache.org/docs/ebcdic.html  which would be very
interesting  to  me. But... I get a file not found, maybee you can fix
this.

Another  question:  is  there the plan to make port of apache for VM /
MVS / os390?

Ciao

Oops ... My fault. I was going to supply an ebcdic.html (made from the
blurb in README.EBCDIC -found in the 1.3b source tree-, html'ized,
kind of a rationale for certain design decisions).
I'll get to it before 1.3.0.

I don't have such a machine at hand here, sorry; and I don't know of any
other Apache Core Member with a mainframe. If you'd volunteer, that'd be
great ;-)
No, seriously: I heard that the EBCDIC charset problem is not that serious
on MVS because you can define a task option to run in an ASCII environment,
which eliminates the need for conversion to & from ebcdic (is that true?).

Thank you very much (on behalf of the Apache Team),
