+<h1>Apache Portable Runtime 0.9.7 Released</h1>
+
+<p>The Apache Software Foundation and the Apache Portable Runtime
+   Project are proud to announce the General Availability of
+   version 0.9.7 of the Apache Portable Runtime, APR, and version
+   0.9.7 of it's companion project, the Apache Portable Utility
+   library APR-util.  A corresponding version of APR-iconv 0.9.7,
+   an alternative portable implementation of the 'iconv' library,
+   is released for users without a system iconv implementation.</p>
+
+<p>APR is available for download from:</p>
+
+<dl>
+  <dd><a href="http://apr.apache.org/download.cgi"
+    >http://apr.apache.org/download.cgi</a></dd>
+</dl>
+
+<p>This version of APR is principally a bug fix release, and is
+   provided only for users requiring APR 0.9 compatibility.  Most
+   users are recommended to adopt the latest APR 1.x version to
+   ensure the most comprehensive support access to the latest
+   features and enhancements.</p>
+
+<p>The mission of the Apache Portable Runtime Project is to create
+   and maintain software libraries that provide a predictable and
+   consistent interface to underlying platform-specific
+   implementations. The primary goal is to provide an API to
+   which software developers may code and be assured of predictable
+   if not identical behavior regardless of the platform on which
+   their software is built, relieving them of the need to code
+   special-case conditions to work around or take advantage of
+   platform-specific deficiencies or features.</p>
+
+<p>APR and its companion libraries are implemented entirely in C
+   and provide a common programming interface across a wide variety
+   of operating system platforms without sacrificing performance.
+   Currently supported platforms include:</p>
+
+<ul>
+  <li>UNIX
+  <li>Windows
+  <li>Netware
+  <li>Mac OS X
+  <li>OS/2
+  <li>BeOS
+</ul>
+
+<p>To give a brief overview, the primary core
+   subsystems of APR 0.9 include the following:</p>
+
+<ul>
+  <li>Atomic operations
+  <li>Dynamic Shared Object loading
+  <li>File I/O
+  <li>Locks (mutexes, condition variables, etc)
+  <li>Memory management (high performance allocators)
+  <li>Memory-mapped files
+  <li>Network I/O
+  <li>Shared memory
+  <li>Thread and Process management
+  <li>Various data structures (tables, hashes, priority queues, etc)
+</ul>
+
+<p>For a more complete list, please refer to the following URLs:</p>
+
+<dl>
+  <dd><a href="http://apr.apache.org/docs/apr/modules.html"
+    >http://apr.apache.org/docs/apr/modules.html</a></dd>
+  <dd><a href="http://apr.apache.org/docs/apr-util/modules.html"
+    >http://apr.apache.org/docs/apr-util/modules.html</a></dd>
+</dl>
+
+<p>Users of APR 0.9 should be aware that migrating to the APR 1.x
+   programming interfaces may require some adjustments; APR 1.x is
+   not binary compatible with earlier APR 0.9 releases.  Users of
+   APR 1.x can expect consistent interfaces and binary backwards
+   compatibility through the entire APR 1.x release cycle, as defined 
+   in our versioning rules:</p>
+
+<dl>
+  <dd><a href="http://apr.apache.org/versioning.html"
+    >http://apr.apache.org/versioning.html</a></dd>
+</dl>
+
+<p>APR is already used extensively by the Apache HTTP Server
+   version 2.0 and the Subversion revision control system, to
+   name but a few.  We list all known projects using APR at
+   http://apr.apache.org/projects.html -- so please let us know
+   if you find our libraries useful in your own projects!</p>
