21 days? Win32 1.3.34 candidate ready for testing

Folks,

I'll pull down Win32 binaries for 1.3.34 tonight, since it's been up at

http://httpd.apache.org/dev/dist/

for the past three weeks and haven't seen three +1's yet.  If we get three
votes to release this binary package, great.  If not, I'll remove the links
from downloads.cgi on the httpd site, as well as the out-of-date 1.3.33 pkg.

Votes please

Bill

Just forwarning, runing perl-framework on Win32 is a non-trivial problem :)
Feel free to ping the list if you get stuck.

Nope, but I am now ... I will try the perl-framework approach next time.

Cheers

Andrew thank you for the report, I'll investigate, and if appropriate, just
reroll this package in the next few days with the missing tree.

Are you familiar with http://httpd.apache.org/test/ ?

Bill,

I downloaded the 3 win32 installers last week and tried them on my
Windows XP sp2 desktop at work.  Seemed to work fine, but I did not
submit them to any particularly exotic testing.  The only problem I
could find was that the manual/misc directory was empty, so references
to (e.g.) the FAQ were broken.  This meant that the FAQ shortcut
installed by the installer did not work, which is a high-visibility bug.
Had the same problem with all three packaged versions of 1.3.34 so I
guess the misc directory was just missed somehow?

Is there a testing procedure that anyone uses?

Cheers,

Andrew S.
