What are you talking about exactly here? trunk should compile and run fine already with 3.0 except if you build OpenSSL without deprecated functions which AFAIK nobody sane will do, or at least, no sane distributor will do, because the world is not ready. > With my RM hat on, I see the next release in early December.

I would still like to get a Travis job testing against 3.0, on my TODO, but I don't know of any compatilibity problems not covered in trunk / https://github.com/apache/httpd/pull/258 (outside use of deprecated functions anyway).

It all works fine. The OP just linked to the template, not the CGI that constructs a download link for you. ... ie. wrong URL. httpd.apache.org has the correct URL (of course) Cheers, -g
