See <Pi...@twinlark.arctic.org>
for a more up-to-date idea (int vformatter) that has a
vote of +1 from Dean, Ben, Martin, Paul and Jim for concept
Concepts:
* Jim's [CONCEPT] platform.h header file. Instead of lumping
all OS stuff in conf.h, create a ./platforms/ sub-dir
and have Configure copy and modify platform.h as needed.
<19...@devsys.jaguNET.com>
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.
Ken would like to see it in libap instead of libmain.
* Ben's ASP work... All agree it sounds cool.
* DDA's adding a tray application to the Windoze version for ease of
status/management.
<01...@caravan.individual.com>
<01...@caravan.individual.com>
Status: Ken +1, Sameer +1, Martin +1, Ben +1 (as long as
we get a single executable)
Paul: No like Win95 specific stuff
Ken: What's W95-specific about it?
Needs patch:
* Dean's "locale" project
See <Pi...@twinlark.arctic.org>
Status: Jim'll look into it
Closed issues:
* Removal of inetd mode
Ken says he'll try to maintain it, since there are
people/places who need it
Open issues:
* Paul would like to see a 'gdbm' option because he uses
it a lot. Dean notes that 'gdbm' include 'db' support
so we need to watch the library ordering.
Dean notes: Check rev 1.72 -> rev 1.73 of
src/Configuration.tmpl. I re-ordered mod_auth_dbm and
mod_auth_db at this time, and I'm pretty sure it was to
deal with this issue. But I think I still ran into
troubles if I automatically looked for gdbm.
* What do we call the binary: apache or httpd? Under UNIX
it's httpd, under Win32 it's apache. Maybe rename it
to apache-httpd?
apache-httpd: Ken +1
* Maybe a http_paths.h file? See
<Pi...@valis.worldgate.com>
* Release builds: Should we provide Configuration or not?
Should we 'make all suexec' in src/support?
Ken +1 (possible suexec path issue, though)
* root's environment is inherited by the Apache server. Jim, Ken &
Dean thinks we should recommend using 'env' to build the
appropriate environment. Marc and Alexei don't see any
big deal.
* Ken suggests that new check_cmd_context() and related defines
should be non-static and in util_* so modules can use 'em. (He
didn't notice this flaw during the review.)
* Sameer's mod_so implemetation
See <19...@gabber.c2.net>
Issues: Underscores: Should I try prepending, appending, and
ignoring? -> Alexei says look at Java
Location? os/unix ??
* 206 vs. 200 issue on Content-Length
See <Pi...@valis.worldgate.com>
Roy says current behavior is correct, but Alexei disagrees.
Marc sides with Alexei.
* Marc's socket options like source routing (kill them?)
Marc, Dean, Martin say Yes
* Marc's [BUG] include virtual and SCRIPT_NAME w/path_info
<Pi...@alive.znep.com>
* Ken's PR#1053: an error when accessing a negotiated document
explicitly names the variant selected. Should it do so, or should
the base input name be referenced?
