problems if used with round robin load balancers). Don't regenerate the

secret on graceful restarts. PR 54637 [Stefan Fritsch]

This can be usefull with dynamic pages.

from the HTTP_IN filter, parse chunks in a single pass with zero copy.

Reduce memory usage by 48 bytes per request. [Graham Leggett]

to the output filters, which is bogus in the proxy case. Create a

clean mapping from APR codes to HTTP status codes, and use it where

needed. [Graham Leggett]

504 Gateway Timout as opposed to 502 Bad Gateway, in order to be

compliant with RFC2616 14.9.4 Cache Revalidation and Reload Controls.

a poll event from a read to a write or vice versa. This is a step on

the way to allow mod_ssl taking full advantage of the event MPM.

[Graham Leggett]

*) mod_ldap: LDAP connections used for authentication were not respecting

LDAPConnectionPoolTimeout. PR 54587

*) EventOpt MPM

*) core: Add LogLevelOverride directive that allows to override the

loglevel for clients from certain IPs. This also works for things

like the SSL handshake where <If> LogLevel ... </If> is evaluated

too late. [Stefan Fritsch]

*) core: Add new directive Warning to issue warnings from a configuration

file. Both Warning and Error now generate a timestamped log message.

[Fabien Coelho]

*) ap_expr: Add SERVER_PROTOCOL_VERSION, ..._MAJOR, and ..._MINOR

variables. [Stefan Fritsch]

*) core: New directive RegisterHttpMethod for registering non-standard

HTTP methods. [Stefan Fritsch]
