Changes to download system schould be in XML (xdocs directory) as HTML files
are result of XSLT preprocessing. So here we go again:
1. download.html becomes download.xml
2. index.html, building.html and faq.html becomes xdocs/stylesheets/flood.xml
other files (mirrors.conf, download.cgi) are the same.
Also flood site update noting Flood 1.1 release must be in XML. In addition I
have fixed small typo there (I was claiming, that I've signed httpd-2.0.47 ;))
regards,
Jacek Prucia

<p>This version of Flood comes with many new features and bug fixes.
Most noticable addition is recently written user documentation.</p>

<section id="verify"><title>Verify the integrity of the files</title>
<p>It is essential that you verify the integrity of the downloaded
files using the PGP or MD5 signatures. Please read <a
href="/dev/verification.html">Verifying Apache HTTP Server Releases</a> for
more information on why you should verify our releases. Even when this page
refers to Apache HTTP Server, most of concepts still apply to Flood.</p>
<p>The PGP signatures can be verified using PGP or GPG. First
download the <a href="http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/KEYS";>KEYS</a>
as well as the <code>asc</code> signature file for the particular
distribution. Make sure you get these files from the <a
href="http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/flood/";>main distribution
directory</a>, rather than from a mirror. Then verify the signatures
using</p>
<p><code>
% pgpk -a KEYS<br />
% pgpv flood-VERSION.tar.gz.asc<br />
</code>
<em>or</em><br />
<code>
% pgp -ka KEYS<br />
% pgp flood-VERSION.tar.gz.asc<br />
</code>
<em>or</em><br />
<code>
% gpg --import KEYS<br />
% gpg --verify flood-VERSION.tar.gz.asc
</code></p>
<ul>
<li>flood-1.1.tar.gz is signed by Jacek Prucia <code>7EFFAEB0</code></li>
</ul>
<p>Alternatively, you can verify the MD5 signature on the files. A
unix program called <code>md5</code> or <code>md5sum</code> is
included in many unix distributions. It is also available as part of
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/textutils/textutils.html";>GNU
Textutils</a>. Windows users can get binary md5 programs from <a
href="http://www.fourmilab.ch/md5/";>here</a>, <a
href="http://www.pc-tools.net/win32/freeware/console/";>here</a>, or
<a href="http://www.slavasoft.com/fsum/";>here</a>.</p>
