<P><BLOCKQUOTE>
-Apache 1.2.6 is now available. This is a maintenance release, with
-numerous bug fixes from 1.2.5, including a several
-HTTP/1.1 protocol fixes necessary for correct interoperation with
-new clients.
-The 1.2 series has been well tested and is a stable platform. If you
-are running any beta of 1.2, or any older version of the Apache HTTP
-server, you should upgrade to this release for both stability and
-security reasons.
+
+ The Apache Group is pleased to announce the release of the long
+ awaited 1.3.0 version of the Apache HTTP server. A dozen months,
+ hundreds of patches and over 5 score code contributors helped make the
+ release of 1.3.0 a reality.
+
+<P>
+
+ Apache 1.3.0 is the most stable version of Apache currently available;
+ everyone running 1.2.X servers or earlier should upgrade to 1.3, as we
+ will stop providing support for the 1.2.X tree, though we may make a
+ release of 1.2.7. At present, the Win32 port of Apache is not
+ as stable as the UNIX version. Further releases of the 1.3.x tree
+ will bring the Win95/NT port closer to parity.
