[STATUS] (apache-1.2) Sun Feb 1 23:45:19 EST 1998

The main goal for 1.2.6 is to fix egregious bugs, such as protocol bugs,
or DoS bugs.  Changes that have been tested in 1.3 already may be given
consideration.  "Easy" portability fixes may be given consideration.

Dean is pretty much accepted as the release manager for this branch.

Current Modes:

    o Commit-Then-Review (see <http://dev.apache.org/guidelines.html#ctr>
    o NO lazy voting

I wouldn't mind knowing if I subtly broke anything... a test suite would
be soooo nice.

Should we add the options fixes to 1.2?
