Release:
RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS:
- * Revert to a 1.3 behavior and allow a non-file request to travel
- through the request cycle. If any request gets to the core handler,
- without a flag that this r->filename was tested by dir/file_walk,
- then we 500 at the very end of the request cycle. This provides
+ * Handler and Filter filetypes in mod_mime now trigger mod_negotiation
+ recognition of files, but no mechanism exists to prioritize which of
+ several mod_negotation files aught to be served by handler or filter.
+ There needs to be a mechanism, or the change to reenable this match
+ behavior must be reverted [OtherBill's veto of 1.3 behavior].
+
+ * If any request gets to the core handler, without a flag that this
+ r->filename was tested by dir/file_walk, we need to 500 at the very
+ end of the ap_process_request_internal() processing. This provides
authors of older modules better compatibility, while still improving
- the security and robustness of 2.0. This does not remove the new
- map_to_storage hook itself, but makes it optional for some cases.
+ the security and robustness of 2.0.
Status: still need to decide where this goes, OtherBill comments...

we need to look at halting this in the 'default handler' case,

- * mod_negotiation will not serve a request when an early extention
- is understood, but a later extention is not. e.g. if the request
- index.html.bak is recieved, and negotition could find the file
- index.html.bak.en, it still won't be served because the
- ap-mime-exception-list will contain "index" and "bak", and the
- string "index.bak" doesn't match "index.html.bak". Need to
- review the ap-mime-exception-list component by component to be
- allow these cases. [This could be part of a patch to allow the
- name index.bak in the case above to match index.html.bak.en]
-
* mod_negotiation needs a new option or directive, something like
ForceLanguagePriority, to fall back to the LanguagePriority
directive instead of returning a "no acceptable variant" error.
- thoughts on filter modes:

+ * Fold mod_auth_db features back into mod_auth_dbm, and depricate it.
+ This can't wait until we have a 2.0-gold release, if folks need
+ to move over to auth_dbm, we can't do that to them after 2.0 gold.

RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP:
* Allow the DocumentRoot directive within <Location > scopes? This
allows the beloved (crusty) Alias /foo/ /somepath/foo/ followed
by a <Directory /somepath/foo> to become simply
<Location /foo/> DocumentRoot /somefile/foo (IMHO a bit more legible
- and in-your-face.) This proposed change would not depricate Alias.
+ and in-your-face.) DocumentRoot unset would be accepted [and would
+ not permit content to be served, only virtual resources such as
+ server-info or server-status.
+ This proposed change would _not_ depricate Alias.
* add mod_gz to httpd-2.0 (in modules/experimental/)
+1: Greg, Justin, ben, Ken, Jeff, Bill
* Win32: Rotatelogs sometimes is not terminated when Apache
goes down hard. FirstBill was looking at possibly tracking the
child's-child processes in the parent process.
+ OtherBill asks, wasn't this fixed?
* Win32: Add a simple hold console open patch (wait for close or
the ESC key, with a nice message) if the server died a bad
optimization working in threaded. prefork's new design for how
to notice data on the pod should be sufficient.
- * mod_tls is very specific to OpenSSL. Make the API calls
- more generic to support other encryption libraries.
-
* Performance & Debug: Eliminate most (and perhaps all) of the
malloc/free calls in the bucket brigade code. Need some
light weight memory management functions that allow freeing
necessarily the library that Apache was built with. Aught to
rewrite dbmmanage upon installation to bin/ with the proper library
for predictable mod_auth_db/dbm administration.
+ Status: Mladen Turk has posted several patches and ideas.
+ Key question, part of htpasswd, or a seperate utility?
+ prefer htpasswd:
+ prefer seperate: OtherBill
+
* use apu_dbm in mod_auth_dbm
Status: Greg +1 (low-priority volunteer)
builds/machines, etc. The use-multiple database schema
for apr-util would let us do this with just apr, though."
- * Fold mod_auth_db features back into mod_auth_dbm, and depricate it.
-
* Integrate mod_dav.
Some additional items remaining:
- case_preserved_filename stuff
Open issues:
- * What do we do about mod_proxy?
-
* Which MPMs will be included with Apache 2.0?
