Looks like a reasonable start. I guess rule 4 is down to me :-) Only thing is, do we really want it in that particular location? Maybe we should have a docs directory under apache that holds all these files. Some other things I'd like to see would be a style guide and a "how to send us a patch" guide. On the style guide issue, I started to clean up some warnings yesterday and the code style varies *A LOT* across different files. This makes it very hard to see quickly what is happening and in some cases the coding style is just simply bizarre by most common standards (everyone has their personal taste I guess). For a group project I think some basic coding standards would be a good idea. I've always been a fan of the Berkeley style, I can dig up their style guide if people think this is a good idea. I'll even volunteer to clean up the current sources once we agree on a guide. -- Paul Richards. Originative Solutions Ltd. (Netcraft Ltd. contractor) Elsevier Science TIS online journal project.
