<P>
The Apache Group is pleased to announce the release of version
-1.3.3 of the Apache HTTP server.
+1.3.4 of the Apache HTTP server.
<P>
-This new Apache version is a bugfix release, primarily to fix a
-serious problem with server error reporting introduced in 1.3.2.
-This affected the functionality of most custom ErrorDocuments and
-of some modules that depend on special error output (e.g., mod_speling).
-A side-effect bug that resulted in incorrect error reporting of
-nonexistent .htaccess files has also been fixed.
+This new Apache version incorporates over 90 significant improvements
+to the server, including avoidance of some denial-of-service attacks,
+support for 3rd-party WebDAV modules, a complete overhaul of content
+negotiation, optional column sorting for fancy indexes, the ability to
+set a DefaultLanguage, and many fixes to improve consistency, portability,
+and squish bugs. A complete listing is provided in the src/CHANGES file.
<P>
-Additional changes in this release consist of new supported platforms,
-Win32 and Unix portability fixes, ErrorDocument environment enhancements,
-improved protocol behavior to match the HTTP/1.1 revised specification,
-and assorted other features or fixes. Users should review the <A
HREF="http://www.apache.org/docs/new_features_1_3";>new_features_1_3</A> file
-and decide on their upgrade plans. We consider Apache 1.3.3 to be the
-most stable version of Apache available and we strongly recommend that
-users of older versions, especially of the 1.1.x and 1.2.x family, upgrade
-as soon as possible.
+Of special note are the many changes to the Apache configuration process.
+The default path layout generated by the "configure" script has been
+changed to be more consistent with the traditional Apache layout, and
+several new command-line options have been added to make compilation
+easier. Please see the README.configure and INSTALL files for complete
+information. In addition, we have moved all of the server configuration
+directives to a single file (httpd.conf-dist), updated mime.types, and
+improved the examples for first-time installers. Finally, a few of the
+rarely-used command-line options for httpd have been changed to be more
+consistent with the help options of other programs.
