+ * Proposed API Changes:

+ - r->content_language is for backwards compatibility... with modules
+ that may not link any longer without some minor editing. The new
+ field is r->content_languages. Heck it's not even mentioned in
+ apache-devsite/mmn.txt when we got content_languages (note the s!).
+ The proposal is to remove r->content_language:

+ - child_exit() is redundant, it can be implemented via cleanups. It is
+ not "symmetric" in the sense that there is no exit API method to go
+ along with the init() API method. There is no need for an exit
+ method, there are already modules using cleanups to perform this (see
+ mod_mmap_static, and mod_php3 for example). The proposal is to
+ remove the child_exit() method and document cleanups as the method of
+ handling this need.

-Proposed announcement for -testers mailing list:
-
- The Apache Group would like to expand the audience that is available
- for testing during the development cycles. In particular, the stable
- release (1.2 currently) receives less testing by the developers
- because the developers are generally running the development release
- (1.3 currently). To aid this we have created two mailing lists:
- stable-testers and current-testers.
-
- Volunteers willing to test drive versions of the stable branch of
- the Apache HTTP Server should send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
- containing the words:
-
- subscribe stable-testers
-
- Volunteers willing to test drive versions of the current development
- branch of the Apache HTTP Server should send a message to
- [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the words:
-
- subscribe current-testers
-
- These forums will be predominantly one-way: when the Apache Group has
- a new release ready, they will let the appropriate list know about it
- first, and then it is *expected* that people will pull it down from
- the Apache web site (or one of its mirrors) and give it a spin. If
- you see a problem, and have with due diligence verified that it
- isn't a configuration error, and it's definitely a difference in
- behavior from the last public release in the series, then please
- post here about it.
-
- Thanks!

- Dean intends to post this on friday, around noon PST.
