FOSDEM 2017 Open Source Conference - Brussels
Hello Everyone This email is to tell you about ASF participation at FOSDEM. The event will be held in Brussels on 4^th & 5^th February 2017 and we are hoping that many people from our ASF projects will be there. https://fosdem.org/2017/ Attending FOSDEM is completely free and the ASF will again be running a booth there. Our main focus will on talking to people about the ASF, our projects and communities. *_Why Attend FOSDEM?_* Some reasons for attending FOSDEM are: 1. Promoting your project: FOSDEM has up to 4-5000 attendees so is a great place to spread the word about your project 2. Learning, participating and meeting up: FOSDEM is a developers conference so includes presentations covering a range of technologies and includes lots of topic specific devrooms _*FOSDEM Wiki *_ A page on the Community Development wiki has been created with the main details about our involvement at conference, so please take a look https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/COMDEV/FOSDEM+2017 If you would like to spend some time on the ASF booth promoting your project then please sign up on the FOSDEM wiki page. Initially we would like to split this into slots of 3-4 hours but this will depend on the number of projects that are represented. We are also looking for volunteers to help out on the booth over the 2 days of the conference, so if you are going to be there and are willing to help then please add your name to the volunteer list. _*Project Stickers*_ If you are going to be at FOSDEM and do not have any project stickers to give away then we may (budget permitting) be able to help you get some printed. Please contact me with your requirements. _*Social Event*_ Some people have asked about organising an ASF social event / meetup during the conference. This is possible but we will need know how many people are interested and which date works best. The FOSDEM wiki page also contains an 'Arrival / Departure' section so so please add your details if you would like to participate. I hope this helps people see some of the advantages of attending FOSDEM and we are looking forward to seeing lots of people there from our ASF communities. Thanks Sharan Apache Community Development http://community.apache.org/
Re: Change the content-length header for other filters
Hi, I have looked into the ap_get_client_block(), it uses the brigade api too. If I would remove the old api calls from mod_WebObjects, how many bytes I should read on every call to ap_get_brigade (BLOCK_READ)? Is it necessary to define a timer, which stops a block read, if I try to read too many bytes? Or should I use NONBLOCK_READ? My last try was, to get only one byte from the client first and then read the content-length header again (in the case, that it has been changed by my filter) and call ap_get_client_block() with the corrected length again. But I learned, that my filter collects all bytes of the request body (the brigade contains EOS then) to process it and a second call to ap_get_client_block() returns always 0, because req->remaining = 0. I don't see a chance to implement my filter at the moment. Is it possible to use mod_proxy? A second server in front of the WebObjects server could re-send the browser requests with mod_proxy which calls my filter too. Maybe with SetEnv proxy-sendcl 1 the Content-Length header could be fixed after the filter, just before resend the request to the backend server (WebObjects). But I have to change all response links (HTML, CSS, Javascript) with mod_proxy_html from the WebObjects server to the proxy. But this is so much overhead to intercept and change a simple request. Any further ideas?

It uses the old ap_get_client_block() interface instead of using the bucket brigade directly. It does appear to copy the content length before the first read is performed [meaning your input filter has not run for the first time when it looks at the length). -- Eric Covener cove...@gmail.com
