So... here's my proposal for 1.0 timeline.

- fix install target so we can install flood amd examples off $SRCDIR
- fix few more bugs from STATUS (I'm on it)
- move tag on changed files and roll tarball

Personally I consider lack of install target as a showstopper. It just
simply doesn't feel right to move binaries by hand when you are 1.0. And
since this looks like a trival fix, why not go for it? :)

Agreed.

Yeah, but take for example cadaver (ftp-like WebDAV command line
client). Install target moves only 2 files around: cadaver binary and
man page. Still, it's kinda nice it does what you would expect from
install target. All we need for flood install target right now is just:

$PREFIX/bin/flood
$PREFIX/share/doc/flood/(STATUS|CHANGES|CONFIG|DESIGN|etc.)
$PREFIX/share/doc/flood/examples

I know that 1.0 is just a number, but most people using software threat
it as a special number (stable release). This is why I think flood needs
to have install target working before we roll.

I'm ok with whatever anyone else does, since the three of us
are the primary consumers of flood-1.0, but in the future (as is
my philosophy with the httpd project itself) we shouldn't be
doing tag bumps if we can help it.

An install target would be nice, but we really only have one file
that needs to be installed. Besides that we really only have the
examples, but no docs or man pages or anything like that.
