      This module uses cookies to provide for a

      <h2>Summary</h2>
  
      <p>Previous releases of Apache have included a module which
      generates a 'clickstream' log of user activity on a site using
      cookies. This was called the "cookies" module, mod_cookies. In
      Apache 1.2 and later this module has been renamed the "user
      tracking" module, mod_usertrack. This module has been
      simplified and new directives added.</p>
  </summary>
  
  
  <section>
  <title>Logging</title>
  
      <p>Previously, the cookies module (now the user tracking
      module) did its own logging, using the <tt>CookieLog</tt>
      directive. In this release, this module does no logging at all.
      Instead, a configurable log format file should be used to log
      user click-streams. This is possible because the logging module
      now allows multiple log files. The cookie itself is logged by
      using the text <tt>%{cookie}n</tt> in the log file format. For
      example:</p>
  <example>
  CustomLog logs/clickstream "%{cookie}n %r %t"
  </example>
  
      <p>For backward compatibility the configurable log module
      implements the old <tt>CookieLog</tt> directive, but this
      should be upgraded to the above <tt>CustomLog</tt> directive. </p>

  <title>2-digit or 4-digit dates for cookies?</title>

  Subject: Re: Apache Y2K bug in mod_usertrack.c
  Date: Tue, 30 Jun 1998 11:41:56 -0400
  
  Did some work with cookies and dug up some info that might be useful.
  
  True, Netscape claims that the correct format NOW is four digit dates, and
  four digit dates do in fact work... for Netscape 4.x (Communicator), that
  is.  However, 3.x and below do NOT accept them.  It seems that Netscape
  originally had a 2-digit standard, and then with all of the Y2K hype and
  probably a few complaints, changed to a four digit date for Communicator.
  Fortunately, 4.x also understands the 2-digit format, and so the best way to
  ensure that your expiration date is legible to the client's browser is to
  use 2-digit dates.
  
  However, this does not limit expiration dates to the year 2000; if you use
  an expiration year of "13", for example, it is interpreted as 2013, NOT
  1913!  In fact, you can use an expiration year of up to "37", and it will be
  understood as "2037" by both MSIE and Netscape versions 3.x and up (not sure
  about versions previous to those).  Not sure why Netscape used that
  particular year as its cut-off point, but my guess is that it was in respect
  to UNIX's 2038 problem.  Netscape/MSIE 4.x seem to be able to understand
  2-digit years beyond that, at least until "50" for sure (I think they
  understand up until about "70", but not for sure).
  
  Summary:  Mozilla 3.x and up understands two digit dates up until "37"
  (2037).  Mozilla 4.x understands up until at least "50" (2050) in 2-digit
  form, but also understands 4-digit years, which can probably reach up until
  9999.  Your best bet for sending a long-life cookie is to send it for some
  time late in the year "37".

I think that the email is there on the principal that "quick and dirty
docs are better than no docs".  If we can improve on it, I don't think
there is a problem in removing it.

Does it strike anyone else but me as odd that the docs for this module
consist, in large part, of an email message from 1998. It seems that we
could do better than just pasting this email in here, and actuall
explain the situation a little. Thoughts? Are we somehow bound to quote

Does it strike anyone else but me as odd that the docs for this module
consist, in large part, of an email message from 1998. It seems that we
could do better than just pasting this email in here, and actuall
