[ANNOUNCE] Apache::ASP v2.19

Hey,

The latest release of Apache::ASP, v2.19, is out.  You can
get it in your local CPAN or here:

  http://www.perl.com/CPAN-local/modules/by-module/Apache/

The big development in the module is a standalone CGI mode that 
works without mod_perl, at least on Linux where I tested it.
The rest are tweaks and documentation updates.  The CHANGES
are below.

   Apache::ASP provides an Active Server Pages port to the
   Apache Web Server with Perl scripting only, and enables
   developing of dynamic web applications with session
   management and embedded perl code.  There are also many
   powerful extensions, including XML taglibs, XSLT rendering, 
   and new events not originally part of the ASP API!

Regards,

Josh


=item $VERSION = 2.19; $DATE="7/10/2001";

 +update docs in various parts

 +added ./make_httpd/build_httpds.sh scripts for quick builds
  of apache + mod_perl + mod_ssl

 ++plain CGI mode available for ASP execution.  
  cgi/asp script can now be used to execute ASP 
  scripts in CGI mode.  See CGI perldoc section for more info.
  The examples in ./site/eg have been set up to run
  in cgi mode if desired.  Configuration in CGI section
  only tested for Apache on Linux.

 -Fixed some faulty or out of date docs in XML/XSLT section.

 +added t/server_mail.t test for $Server->Mail(), requires
  Net::SMTP to be configured properly to succeed.

 +Net::SMTP debugging not enabled by Debug 1,2,3 configs,
  not only when system debugging is set with Debug -1,-2,-3
  However, a Debug param passed to $Server->Mail() will 
  sucessfully override the Debug -1,-2,-3 setting even
  when its Debug => 0

 -Check for undef values during stats for inline includes
  so we don't trigger unintialized warnings

 +Documented ';' may separate many directories in the IncludesDir
  setting for creating a more flexible includes search path.
