50298555098049d0ebddd539668502fb5b796de0wrowe exported from APU, but actually exported from modules. This needs
50298555098049d0ebddd539668502fb5b796de0wrowe heavy fixup, which Bill will do on the plane tommorow. The actual
50298555098049d0ebddd539668502fb5b796de0wrowe 'Apache' declaration is in Apache's files, with the 'explicit linkage'

d208bda4a893cc81ed5d3ed1cdd7d706e012bd42stoddard * Win32: Get Apache working on Windows 95/98. The following work
d208bda4a893cc81ed5d3ed1cdd7d706e012bd42stoddard (at least) needs to be done:
d208bda4a893cc81ed5d3ed1cdd7d706e012bd42stoddard - winnt MPM: Fix 95/98 code paths in the winnt MPM. There is some NT
d208bda4a893cc81ed5d3ed1cdd7d706e012bd42stoddard specific code that is still not in NT only code paths
10b386767f6c87b45937244371cb751f0b454d16wrowe - IOL binds to APR sendfile, implemented with TransmitFile, which
10b386767f6c87b45937244371cb751f0b454d16wrowe is not available on 95/98.
863ec32e13d6c9619414c48b51109f3dca99cbc6wrowe - Document warning that OSR2 is required (for Crypt functions, in
863ec32e13d6c9619414c48b51109f3dca99cbc6wrowe rand.c, at least.)
75960f20f88dad6bc67892c711c429946063d133stoddard * Win32: Test access logging with multiple threads. Will the
75960f20f88dad6bc67892c711c429946063d133stoddard native file I/O calls serialize automagically like the
75960f20f88dad6bc67892c711c429946063d133stoddard CRT calls or do we need to add region locking each time
75960f20f88dad6bc67892c711c429946063d133stoddard we access the logs?
10b386767f6c87b45937244371cb751f0b454d16wrowe * Win32: Complete the revamp the service environment and relocation
10b386767f6c87b45937244371cb751f0b454d16wrowe into the WinNT MPM. Changes ServerRoot service registry
10b386767f6c87b45937244371cb751f0b454d16wrowe parameter into ConfigArgs for multiple service startup parameters.
10b386767f6c87b45937244371cb751f0b454d16wrowe Problems to fix in the revamp: -k shutdown/restart are broken,
10b386767f6c87b45937244371cb751f0b454d16wrowe signals are not being acknowledged. Close window and shutdown
10b386767f6c87b45937244371cb751f0b454d16wrowe also seem out of sorts.
50298555098049d0ebddd539668502fb5b796de0wrowe OtherBill is working on this and will finish over the weekend.
a9e07e4f90adcc7bc768db3055431c3dcd560cd1manoj * We need a thread-safe resolver, at least on Unix.

79d5106a9b65b956d646f5daae4b94bc79e315b8trawick * The AddInputFilter and AddOutputFilter directives do not allow the
79d5106a9b65b956d646f5daae4b94bc79e315b8trawick administrator to remove or reorder filters. Once a filter is added
79d5106a9b65b956d646f5daae4b94bc79e315b8trawick in a container, it is present in any subcontainers. It can only be
79d5106a9b65b956d646f5daae4b94bc79e315b8trawick added to the filter chain after any filters specified in enclosing
79d5106a9b65b956d646f5daae4b94bc79e315b8trawick containers.
9eccc0a669a3e711629345b357c46acce5fefdb4gstein * remove the --disable-shared from the subdir config of APR(UTIL)
9eccc0a669a3e711629345b357c46acce5fefdb4gstein before the final release. (in fact, it might even be nice to
750fcd3495b59eff6d4844409ae1dfb46d026059gstein allow for Apache config/build against an already-installed
750fcd3495b59eff6d4844409ae1dfb46d026059gstein Note: we need to do a "make install" for APR(UTIL) so the shared
750fcd3495b59eff6d4844409ae1dfb46d026059gstein libraries can be installed properly. We could also use that
750fcd3495b59eff6d4844409ae1dfb46d026059gstein point to install include files (rather than have Apache
750fcd3495b59eff6d4844409ae1dfb46d026059gstein know everything that needs to be installed from the
750fcd3495b59eff6d4844409ae1dfb46d026059gstein sub-packages). The original impetus for doing the
750fcd3495b59eff6d4844409ae1dfb46d026059gstein disable-shared was because the shared lib wasn't getting
750fcd3495b59eff6d4844409ae1dfb46d026059gstein installed and a "make clean" in aprutil would make Apache
750fcd3495b59eff6d4844409ae1dfb46d026059gstein fail to load.
e9cfc70fceb74521ba0814cdc88808c7d4d00c97gstein * users who want to install third-party modules into the Apache
e9cfc70fceb74521ba0814cdc88808c7d4d00c97gstein source tree (for static linking) need to have autoconf and
e9cfc70fceb74521ba0814cdc88808c7d4d00c97gstein libtool installed. This is because the module needs to have its
e9cfc70fceb74521ba0814cdc88808c7d4d00c97gstein config.m4 incorporated into ./configure, which means "buildconf"
e9cfc70fceb74521ba0814cdc88808c7d4d00c97gstein must be run.
26ef89f716a43048630e73f527dd2f0ee84f72c2rbb Note: This is in part because we have removed the "extra" directory.
26ef89f716a43048630e73f527dd2f0ee84f72c2rbb In the Apache-2.0 repository, this directory had a config.m4
26ef89f716a43048630e73f527dd2f0ee84f72c2rbb file that allowed people to add external modules by
26ef89f716a43048630e73f527dd2f0ee84f72c2rbb specifying --with-module on the configure line.
281da4c02cf40c663298ded7e4e5b913a8f8b814gstein * ap_vrprintf() needs to handle more than 4K
281da4c02cf40c663298ded7e4e5b913a8f8b814gstein Status: Greg volunteers
ec75f189410513ab8f6e1173a9d9d277ebec9ce7gstein * mod_dir should normally redirect ALL directory requests which do
ec75f189410513ab8f6e1173a9d9d277ebec9ce7gstein not include a trailing slash on the URI. However, if a "notes"
ec75f189410513ab8f6e1173a9d9d277ebec9ce7gstein flag is set (say, via BrowserMatch), this behavior will be
ec75f189410513ab8f6e1173a9d9d277ebec9ce7gstein disabled for non-GET requests.

90aa1045e25f8ae38b16905abafbb37c89553469jwoolley bogus because of an uninitialized field in the scoreboard.

0b54edee18a0ec095640e1038ff6da7d35042b44rbb will allow us to error out if a threaded MPM is chosen on a

8bed76428f56e5c643174a2d6807c3f18016af5cbjh which doesn't appear to be catered for in the current build system.

10b386767f6c87b45937244371cb751f0b454d16wrowe * Win32: Add a simple hold console open patch (wait for close or
10b386767f6c87b45937244371cb751f0b454d16wrowe the ESC key, with a nice message) if the server died a bad

d2f8b010487ffa990a9c268df5a25579e7291bcdrbb in the parent process on platforms that do not support fork.
0bff2f28ef945280c17099c142126178a78e1e54manoj * Win32: Migrate the MPM over to use APR thread/process calls. This
0bff2f28ef945280c17099c142126178a78e1e54manoj would eliminate some code in the Win32 branch that essentially
0bff2f28ef945280c17099c142126178a78e1e54manoj duplicates what is in APR.
0bff2f28ef945280c17099c142126178a78e1e54manoj * There are still a number of places in the code where we are
35330e0d79ceb8027223bbb8330a381b1f989d6etrawick losing error status (i.e. throwing away the error returned by a
0bff2f28ef945280c17099c142126178a78e1e54manoj system call and replacing it with a generic error code)

447c6ce3ff08073c44f6785d5256271fcb877512wrowe * All DBMs suffer from confusion in support/dbmmanage (perl script) since
447c6ce3ff08073c44f6785d5256271fcb877512wrowe the dbmmanage employs the first-matched dbm format. This is not
447c6ce3ff08073c44f6785d5256271fcb877512wrowe necessarily the library that Apache was built with. Aught to
447c6ce3ff08073c44f6785d5256271fcb877512wrowe rewrite dbmmanage upon installation to bin/ with the proper library
447c6ce3ff08073c44f6785d5256271fcb877512wrowe for predictable mod_auth_db/dbm administration.

8d07897b52e3b7055874501f8a499e75800db206gstein - is it possible to remove the DAV: namespace stuff from util_xml?
79d5106a9b65b956d646f5daae4b94bc79e315b8trawick * ap_core_translate() and its use by mod_mmap_static and mod_file_cache
79d5106a9b65b956d646f5daae4b94bc79e315b8trawick are a bit wonky. The function should probably be exposed as a utility
79d5106a9b65b956d646f5daae4b94bc79e315b8trawick function (such as ap_translate_url2fs() or ap_validate_fs_url() or
cf6bf6c34c936e6a6fe731dbce4a5c3c8bf8e9a3gstein something). Another approach would be a new hook phase after
cf6bf6c34c936e6a6fe731dbce4a5c3c8bf8e9a3gstein "translate" which would allow the module to munge what the
cf6bf6c34c936e6a6fe731dbce4a5c3c8bf8e9a3gstein translation has decided to do.

ec0315cdf832eac2b78e50ad636af84fe4c9118cgstein needed. Apache 1.3 just never stashed "multipart" into
ec0315cdf832eac2b78e50ad636af84fe4c9118cgstein r->content_type. We should probably follow suit since the
ec0315cdf832eac2b78e50ad636af84fe4c9118cgstein byterange stuff doesn't want the rest of the code to see the
ec0315cdf832eac2b78e50ad636af84fe4c9118cgstein multipart content-type; the other code should still think it is
ec0315cdf832eac2b78e50ad636af84fe4c9118cgstein dealing with the <orig_ct> stuff.
