Apache 1.1.1 released

[Randy Terbush <ra...@zyzzyva.com>]

* I've created the distribution file for Apache 1.1.1.
* I've changed the various files on the website to reflect
  this release.
* I just finished commiting the version change to 1.1.2-dev.


What is the concensus about public announcment?

bugger, no-one tagged the 1.1.1 release. You'll have a hard time ever
getting it out of cvs now!

*DON'T* bump the version number ever again until the release is actually
being packaged and then *immediately* tag the tree to mark that release
point.

I'll go and clean this up.

Um... did you read http://hyperreal.com/httpd/how-to-release.html? It
doesn't look like it... I made one earlier today and put it in /httpd/dist
(as my email said) - why didn't you just use that?

Please give an indication on the main page of what's changed. Using the
exact same language as the 1.1 release doesn't exactly give me the warm
fuzzies - if I was a user, I'd defenitely be wondering why there's
suddenly a new version. Tell me. Say "This version fixes several problems
with Apache 1.1.0, including a fix for a problem with Redirect statements
in .htaccess files, MultiViews' interaction with AddHandler, and a new
version of mod_auth_msql". Or some such.

(and defenitely take out the "stable and bug-free" stuff - that turned out
not to be true of 1.1.0, so saying it about 1.1.1 is just inviting Bad
Things).
