*) HTTP/1.1 Compliance
! Apache (except for the optional proxy) is fully compliant with the
! new HTTP/1.1 standard, as ratified by the IETF HTTP working group.
HTTP/1.1 provides a much-improved protocol, and should allow for
! greater performance and efficiency when transfering files. Apache
! does, however, still work great with HTTP/1.0 browsers.
*) eXtended Server Side Includes (XSSI)
A new set of server-side include directives allows the user to

*) HTTP/1.1 Compliance
! Aside from the optional proxy module (which operates as HTTP/1.0),
! Apache is conditionally compliant with the HTTP/1.1 proposed standard,
! as approved by the IESG and the IETF HTTP working group.
HTTP/1.1 provides a much-improved protocol, and should allow for
! greater performance and efficiency when transferring files. Apache
! does, however, still work great with HTTP/1.0 browsers. We are very

*) User Tracking (Cookies) Revisions
The mod_cookies included with previous versions of Apache has been

directly). It is also now possible to disable the generation of
cookies, even when the cookie module is compiled in. Also, an

(e.g. max CPU time). This is helpful in preventing 'runaway' CGI
processes.
! *) Redirect Directive Can Returns Additional Statuses
! The Redirect directive can return permanent or temporary
! redirectes, "Gone" or "See Other" HTTP statuses. For
! NCSA-compatability, RedirectTemp and RedirectPermanent are also
! implemented.
*) Graceful Restarts
Apache can re-read the config files and re-open log files without
terminating transactions in progress.
! *) Simplified Compliation
The process of configuring Apache for compilation has been
simplified.
*) Add or Remove Options
! The Optionsdirective can now add or remove options from those
currently in force, rather than always replacing them.
