Call for votes on patches to 0.8.15

Votes, please, on the patches available for 0.8.15. There is agreement
that 0.8.15 is not good enough, so we should vote on _all_ of the patches.

Suggested timetable:
Deadline for patches: end of Monday 30th October (Europe)
Deadline for votes:   end of Monday 30th October (USA)

[Does that give enough time, or should it be Tuesday?]

0.8.16 will be built the following day. After one week of testing, it will
be released as 1.0, if no major problems arise.


The patches currently for voting on are:
26_redirect2.0.8.15.patch     Fix handling of % in Redirect command
27_qnx.0.8.14.patch           QNX Port
28_os2port.0.8.14.patch       OS/2 Port
29_addtype.0.8.15.patch       AddType & co should allow multiple extensions
30_svr4.0.8.15.patch          Many SVR4 systems require a lock around accept()
31a_include.0.8.15.patch      SSI #include file="/foo/bar" shouldn't work
32a_manpage.0.8.15.patch      man page for httpd
33_time.0.8.15.patch          Fix bug in time parsing
34_htgroup.0.8.15.patch       Allow multiple lines in htgroup for same group
34a_htgroup.rst.0.8.15.patch  Allow multiple lines in htgroup for same group
35.userdir.0.8.15.patch       Fix UserDir in VirtualHost sections

All patches originate from me, except for 27_qnx (Ben), 28_os2port
(Garey Smiley) and 34a_htgroup.rst (rst).

34_htgroup and 34a_htgroup are alternatives that fix the same problem.
34a_htgroup.rst is smaller than 34_htgroup (3.0Kb < 5.3Kb).
34_htgroup has been tested by one user, is faster and allows unlimit line
lengths.
