[users@httpd] windows binaries... yes, again

Somebody could post some links to download the binaries?
Searching on the mailing list archive, I see the message above, but is a 
month ago... I suppose that there is now the files...

Thanks

One thing the httpd project focuses on is the correctness of the source
distribution.  We only ship binaries based on the sources with very minor
corrections to the build, and never really to the source code.  If the source
changes, a new -source- tarball is created first.

Which is exactly what I'm trying to accomplish pushing out 2.2.1, very quickly,
ahead of the Windows installer.

Yup - here's my 2c update...

httpd 2.2.0 simply didn't build on win32, well, not without alot of patches.
After the first, then the second, it was looking somewhat promising.  By the
time I was finished, the package had drifted pretty far from the source tarball.

Part 2 - including ssl.  This part the news is fairly solid.  The one shortfall
at the moment is I'm trying to figure out how to compile-in zlib.dll support
into ssleay32.dll.  Shouldn't take that long.

Part 3 - new bugs.  There are issues with partial results from proxy bodies
amoung some other nits.  The project dev team is working to agree on the right
solution and will probably finish shortly.

To pull the first and third part together, I offered to roll the 2.2.1 release
over the last weekend, but the part three bug is still in the way.  Hopefully
if that's resolved in the next day or two, folks can put their hands on the win
installer and tarball on Sunday for the purposes of verifing the package and
approving the release.
