Apache HTTP Server 2.0 Documentation Status File.

If you are interested in helping accomplish some of the tasks on this

list or otherwise improving the documentation, please join the

apache-docs mailing list by mailing to

- MPM documentation

- Each MPM needs to have a documentation file in manual/mod/

which lists the directives it provides, and some details

about its operation.

Status: Initial outlines done. Much more details need to be

filled in.

- Non unix/windows MPMs still need to be completed.

- perchild MPM needs some docs.

- Merging of changes in 1.3.

- There have been many changes in the 1.3 docs which haven't

been propagated into 2.0.

Things which need to be merged:

manual/howto/*

- Cleaning.

- We could use a list of all the docs that can be axed out of 2.0

because they are redundant or irrelevant.

Status: Rich <rbowen@rcbowen.com> is going to look at this.

Some suggestions on files to axe. Feel free to comment.

manual/bind.html (mostly now documented in server-wide.html)

manual/cgi-path.html (should be documented in mod_cgi.html instead)

manual/multi-logs.html (documented in mod_log_config.html)

manual/process-model.html (documented in MPMs, eventually)

manual/mod/index-bytype.html

- Individual docs will need some cleanup.

Status: What docs still need to be touched here?

- invoking.html has had a first-pass cleaning done.

- New build process.

- The new build process is autoconf based, so manual/install.html

will need to be completely rewritten. Someone with enough

patience could probably figure out most of the important stuff

by trial and error.

Status: Ryan's "Building and Installing Apache 2.0" might be

a starting place. Rich <rbowen@rcbown.com> is interested

in collaborating with someone else on this.

- Documentation of new features.

- This will probably require more input from new-httpd, since

not many people here follow the development process close

enough to know what is going on.

Status: Ryan has two ApacheToday articles which may be useful

for this.

New features which need documentation:

- filters !!!

- Translations

Status: ???

- The STATUS Document.

- Is this the best organization/format? What else needs to be

added? Should this be auto-posted to apache-docs?
