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
apache-docs-subscribe@apache.org
- 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.
- 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:
- Reorganizing.
- Joshua thinks this is a good opportunity to think about directory
structure.
Proposal:
Create manual/FAQ which contains all the manual/misc/FAQ* docs
- 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)
- Individual docs will need some cleanup. For example,
manual/invoking.html could use a big cleanup with lots of the
"this changed in 1.3.10" stuff removed.
- 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.
- 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?
