Release:

    2.0  : In discussion

	   Announcement released
    1.3b1: There is no 1.3b1

Plan:

    * A ``preliminary'' WIN32 binary is built... Not sure if
	it's ready for prime-time, but it's available from ./dist

	Ben Hyde <bh...@gensym.com> in <97...@gensym1.gensym.com>

	Status: Ken +1, Jim +1

    * Martin's [PATCH] Suggestion for HTTP_PROTO(maj,min) macro
	<<1...@deejai.mch.sni.de>
	Discussion: Is HTTP_PROTO a Good Idea? Other possible
	choice: HTTP_PROTO_NUM, HTTP_VERSION

    * Brian Havard's OS/2 proxy patch -- OS/2 can't open() a directory
	<19...@silk.apana.org.au>
	This is take 3 or so.

In progress:

    * Martin Kraemer's [PATCH] Parsing URI into its components 
	This has "evolved" into a new module: util_uri. Martin
	will post when it's at a state where he's happy with it.

Needs patch:

    * Gemini port (SCO + UnixWare)
	see <Pi...@twinlark.arctic.org>

    * AIX >= 4.2 could use -DNET_SIZE_T=size_t

Open issues:

    * We have a copy of LICENSE in all source files... We need to
	either update all of them or remove it from them.
	Status: Brian: Let's remove them
		Jim: Let's remove the actual LICENSE from the
		 source, but include a pointer to LICENSE

    * Lars Eilebrecht suggests removing HAVE_SYSLOG for Ultrix 4.4
	1.3b3-dev won't compile with it 'cause syslog on Ultrix is weird.

    * According to Brian Havard <br...@kheldar.apana.org.au>,
	it's not possible to compile for OS/2 with the current
	source tree

    * The PR#918 patch above appears to have been bogus, should be fixed or
	reversed.  It has been reversed for now.

    * Martin's SEGV, and Alexei's GP Fault under windows (probably the same)

    * make install issues

    * FLOCK mutex problems under FreeBSD and others

    * Win32:
	mod_info
	Test mod_rewrite
	SERVER_BUILT
	crypt() replacement (but see crypt32.dll)

	- Ben has a more-or-less working install:
	    - doesn't install as a service on NT
	    - win95 doesn't seem to serve up index.html, NT dos

    * Marc's [BUG] include virtual and SCRIPT_NAME w/path_info
	<Pi...@alive.znep.com>
