Added: . STATUS Log: First crack at a status file for Apache 2.0. Please fix mistakes and add/rearrange your pet projects Revision Changes Path 1.1 apache-2.0/STATUS Index: STATUS =================================================================== Apache 2.0 STATUS: Last modified at [$Date: 1999/08/27 18:57:17 $] Release: 2.0: In pre-alpha development Plan: * Vague goal of an alpha or beta release in 1999. Commit-then-review is active. RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS: * CGI doesn't work Status: Ben Laurie is working on this. * mod_status doesn't work Status: Manoj Kasichainula <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> is working on this. A patch has been posted that starts to fix this: (<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) * suEXEC doesn't work Ben Laurie's work to fix CGIs will also fix this. * Windows NT port isn't done Status: Bill is working on this through his MPM work, and Ryan is with APR. * Current 2.0 code is not tested on many Unix platforms. Make 2.0 work on most, if not all the systems 1.3 did Status: Autoconf and APR will get us most of the way there. * The module API is a weird combination of the old table and the new hook system. Switch completely to the new hook system Status: Ben Laurie is working on this. RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP: (none listed) Other bugs that need fixing: * MaxRequestsPerChild measures connections, not requests. * Regex containers don't work in an intutive way Status: No one has come up with an efficient way to fix this behavior. Dean has suggested getting rid of regex containers completely. Other features that need writing: * Switch to autoconf, et al. for configuration. * Use APR to get rid of more platform dependancies. Status: Ryan Bloom <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> is working on this. * Finish infrastructure in core for async MPMs Status: ? * Work on other MPMs. Possible MPMs discussed or in progress include: - David Reid's <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Beos MPM Status: in progress - Dean Gaudet's async MPM Status: ? - Zach Brown's <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Linux siginfo MPM Status: ? Documentation that needs writing: * The concept of MPMs, especially if we ship more than one MPM for a given platform * New directives in the various MPMs * API documentation Status: Ben Laurie has written some hooks documentation (apache-2.0/htdocs/hooks.html) Available Patches: * Mike Abbott's <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> patches to improve performance Status: These were written for 1.3, and are awaiting a port to 2.0 Open issues: * What do we do about mod_proxy? * Which MPMs will be included with Apache 2.0?
