  +    * mod_negotiation will not serve a request when an early extention
  +      is understood, but a later extention is not.  e.g. if the request

  +      ap-mime-exception-list will contain "index" and "bak", and the

  +    * mod_negotiation needs a new option or directive, something like
  +      ForceLanguagePriority, to fall back to the LanguagePriority

       * Usability: Sanitize the MPM config directives.  MaxClients in

   Changes with Apache 2.0.23-dev
   
  +  *) mod_autoindex now excludes any file names that would result in
  +     an error, other than a success or redirect.  [William Rowe]
  +
     *) Refactored mod_negotiation and mod_mime to help mod_dir accept
        negotiated index pages, and prevent the server from defaulting
  -     to an autoindex of the directory.  [William Rowe]
  +     to an autoindex of the directory.  mod_negotiation will now die
  +     with a 500 Internal Error if it could match some filenames 
  +     (e.g. for mod_dir) but none can be served.  mod_negotation now
  +     refuses to serve any file with an extention that mod_mime doesn't
  +     recognize, and wasn't part of the request.  [William Rowe]
   
     *) Eliminate mod_cgi's handling of .exe files without the .exe file
        extension.  This is already handled by multiviews, if the admin
        wishes to AddHandler .exe or define a content type handler and 
  -     associate .exe files with that content type.  [William Rowe]
  +     associate .exe files with that content type.  Multiviews must be
  +     enabled to allow these to be served.  [William Rowe]
   
     *) Speed up the server's response to a spike in incoming workload
        or restarts by assigning empty scoreboard slots to new processes
