8bdd8707c8e341f1fc57fcbf884520bfe06a5028Christian Maeder - mod_mime: has not kept pace with 1.3 docs
e5f5b1612cf7a4a1958c6bfd229f5bb8172879f6Christian Maeder - mod_suexec: very little documentation
d33298ecfcd1fe6da13720ee1cdb3d3949b13084Christian Maeder - mod_include: the "INCLUDES_MAGIC_TYPE" x-server-parsed-html
654b14739364b0b04ecc6fa12e6ecca122eb6838Thiemo Wiedemeyer appears to have been removed from mod_include, but it is still
7feb27c3c79013a53f3067a62136e610689d9495Christian Maeder present in mod_negotiation, mod_autoindex, and httpd.h.
4c8d3c5a9e938633f6147b5a595b9b93bfca99e6Christian Maeder Should it be removed from the docs for mod_include?
654b14739364b0b04ecc6fa12e6ecca122eb6838Thiemo Wiedemeyer - mod_status: updates for 2.0
e5f5b1612cf7a4a1958c6bfd229f5bb8172879f6Christian Maeder - mod_example: updates for 2.0
bdeddba30d29f413af1e1ae6b6bab275c017bd98Christian Maeder - Some of the man pages need to be updated for 2.0. At least
e5f5b1612cf7a4a1958c6bfd229f5bb8172879f6Christian Maeder the httpd man page appears to be outdated, and perhaps other.
4e9e95ba35a68f3c767bc0b23ebf9e904e442517Christian Maeder After this is done, the manual/programs/ versions can be
109b67ffce2bad83667e2f4a319d2d7f380f91afThiemo Wiedemeyer- XHTML conversion
8bdd8707c8e341f1fc57fcbf884520bfe06a5028Christian Maeder Status: James A Sutherland <jas88@cam.ac.uk>
f0c15d9d060594deb564ae4c8445664b7e7ba956Christian Maeder is working on this.
d6638fccd3d43fe4499efca11cdc35a2825bcc9bThiemo Wiedemeyer Some work is still needed
66fd8f017efdb8a6c862c3f1856dfaef90865dd5Thiemo Wiedemeyer to determine what the SSIs should look like.
697e63e30aa3c309a1ef1f9357745111f8dfc5a9Christian Maeder- MPM documentation
c745add71930134bc085a544783213179bd3e734Thiemo Wiedemeyer - Each MPM needs to have a documentation file in manual/mod/
bdeddba30d29f413af1e1ae6b6bab275c017bd98Christian Maeder which lists the directives it provides, and some details
b7af683d179f4e5bf09b60a97ab0b2ed298b97ebChristian Maeder about its operation.
d33298ecfcd1fe6da13720ee1cdb3d3949b13084Christian Maeder Status: Initial outlines done. Much more details need to be
7feb27c3c79013a53f3067a62136e610689d9495Christian Maeder - Non unix/windows MPMs still need to be completed.
7feb27c3c79013a53f3067a62136e610689d9495Christian Maeder - worker has no docs
654b14739364b0b04ecc6fa12e6ecca122eb6838Thiemo Wiedemeyer - the perchild directives in threaded/worker need docs
b881a980004168d9f55fa46c872aa13f12e10634Christian Maeder - Individual docs will need some cleanup.
e5f5b1612cf7a4a1958c6bfd229f5bb8172879f6Christian Maeder Status: What docs still need to be touched here?
4d3b50fc78a0c99ff2914fb23f3c7fba6e38d790Thiemo Wiedemeyer - invoking.html has had a first-pass cleaning done.
4c36fb968488fecc209a75cb1af671e9f9c678e2Christian Maeder - misc/perf-tuning.html - needs major rewrite for 2.0
4d3b50fc78a0c99ff2914fb23f3c7fba6e38d790Thiemo Wiedemeyer - misc/FAQ.html - some old questions could be remove
71654489020a03cf6ce9f2947f3da26a996f9c32Razvan Pascanu - is a new format in order?
44c1fff98bd6c54db237bef5030657d3f47058a5Thiemo Wiedemeyer - misc/tutorials.html - mostly not relevant to 2.0
654b14739364b0b04ecc6fa12e6ecca122eb6838Thiemo Wiedemeyer - misc/rewriteguide.html - needs cleaning in 1.3 and 2.0
a668bef7a7852dc5cf6208d7318bd5c949cc69bfThiemo Wiedemeyer - misc/known_client_problems.html - mostly ancient
109b67ffce2bad83667e2f4a319d2d7f380f91afThiemo Wiedemeyer- New build process.
8bdd8707c8e341f1fc57fcbf884520bfe06a5028Christian Maeder - install.html has had a first-pass rewrite, but needs more
8bdd8707c8e341f1fc57fcbf884520bfe06a5028Christian Maeder work to be complete, and needs to track changes/bug-fixes
c745add71930134bc085a544783213179bd3e734Thiemo Wiedemeyer in the build system.
32d98ca5e560cf6c1062a0463be4c350af32bed5Thiemo Wiedemeyer- Documentation of new features.
8bdd8707c8e341f1fc57fcbf884520bfe06a5028Christian Maeder - This will probably require more input from new-httpd, since
32d98ca5e560cf6c1062a0463be4c350af32bed5Thiemo Wiedemeyer not many people here follow the development process close
20b4fd534e69163ae5992d93ebd1782a9661e623Christian Maeder enough to know what is going on.
32d98ca5e560cf6c1062a0463be4c350af32bed5Thiemo Wiedemeyer- API documentation
32d98ca5e560cf6c1062a0463be4c350af32bed5Thiemo Wiedemeyer Status: Ben Laurie has written some hooks documentation
bdeddba30d29f413af1e1ae6b6bab275c017bd98Christian Maeder- Translations
8bdd8707c8e341f1fc57fcbf884520bfe06a5028Christian Maeder We appear to have people working on translation into the following
8bdd8707c8e341f1fc57fcbf884520bfe06a5028Christian Maeder languages. These may just be the 'it worked' page, but if so
f0c15d9d060594deb564ae4c8445664b7e7ba956Christian Maeder the authors of those should perhaps be contacted to help do the
32d98ca5e560cf6c1062a0463be4c350af32bed5Thiemo Wiedemeyer rest.. :-) Note that this list is NOT identical to that for the
32d98ca5e560cf6c1062a0463be4c350af32bed5Thiemo Wiedemeyer 1.3 documentation project..!

b021998bf955c87c7cdcc69f0667dc2880b3ce1fThiemo WiedemeyerThings to be done in both the 1.3 and 2.0 trees
8bdd8707c8e341f1fc57fcbf884520bfe06a5028Christian Maeder===============================================
44c1fff98bd6c54db237bef5030657d3f47058a5Thiemo Wiedemeyer* Tutorial on user authentication with Apache. Rich Bowen has contributed
8bdd8707c8e341f1fc57fcbf884520bfe06a5028Christian Maeder his tutorial from ApacheToday, but it needs to be cleaned up and put in
b021998bf955c87c7cdcc69f0667dc2880b3ce1fThiemo Wiedemeyer a good format for the docs.
8734053e63cda0a4316b38404b4843f4c9e54086Christian Maeder - Rich has kindy donated the "4-part logging article on Apache Today"
4c36fb968488fecc209a75cb1af671e9f9c678e2Christian Maeder articles that will need a little massaging.
4c36fb968488fecc209a75cb1af671e9f9c678e2Christian MaederNew User documentation
8bdd8707c8e341f1fc57fcbf884520bfe06a5028Christian Maeder======================
bdeddba30d29f413af1e1ae6b6bab275c017bd98Christian Maeder* Adding more documentation for new users
8bdd8707c8e341f1fc57fcbf884520bfe06a5028Christian Maeder - I believe that we'll need to get more info on what is missing, ie.
8bdd8707c8e341f1fc57fcbf884520bfe06a5028Christian Maeder user feedback and whatnot. --jsl
bdeddba30d29f413af1e1ae6b6bab275c017bd98Christian MaederDocumentation improvements
bdeddba30d29f413af1e1ae6b6bab275c017bd98Christian Maeder==========================
bdeddba30d29f413af1e1ae6b6bab275c017bd98Christian Maeder* Improving the "security docs"
bdeddba30d29f413af1e1ae6b6bab275c017bd98Christian Maeder - More content and better organisation.
bdeddba30d29f413af1e1ae6b6bab275c017bd98Christian Maeder* General cleaning and improving of module docs
034d9e2e9ada5aaa5665180720744d51166dacd4Christian Maeder* Making the directive definitions "less terse" (i.e., adding more
bdeddba30d29f413af1e1ae6b6bab275c017bd98Christian Maeder examples and details to the definitions of the directives)
bdeddba30d29f413af1e1ae6b6bab275c017bd98Christian Maeder - We'll need to audit these and find out which ones need munging, as
74005a55774bbeae6eb20dbc8c0533d762066bf2Christian Maeder some of it looks ok. --jsl
