Hi,

While downloading the MD5 signature for the latest 1.x apache release
(1.3.27) I noticed that the content type being sent for 

  http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/apache_1.3.27.tar.gz.md5

is "application/x-tar".  But that's incorrect.  This file is really
just a plain text file.  Because the incorrect content type will make
it harder for some folks to look at the signature I'd suggest you
change the content type value to "text/plain".

An HTTP transcript showing what's going on is included below.

Thanks for maintaining the Apache website!

Jason.
