*) mod_ldap: Add LDAPConnectionPoolTTL to give control over lifetime
of bound backend LDAP connections. PR47634 [Eric Covener]
*) mod_cache: Make CacheEnable and CacheDisable configurable per
directory in addition to per server, making them work from within
a LocationMatch. [Graham Leggett]
*) worker, event, prefork: Correct several issues when built as
DSOs; most notably, the scoreboard was reinitialized during graceful
restart, such that processes of the previous generation were not
observable. [Jeff Trawick]
*) mod_proxy: balancer-manager now uses POST instead of GET.
[Jim Jagielski]
*) core: new util function: ap_parse_form_data(). Previously,
this capability was tucked away in mod_request. [Jim Jagielski]
*) core: new hook: ap_run_pre_read_request. [Jim Jagielski]
*) mod_cache: When a request other than GET or HEAD arrives, we must
invalidate existing cache entities as per RFC2616 13.10. PR 15868.

committed
*) modules: Fix many modules that were not correctly initializing if they
were not active during server startup but got enabled later during a
graceful restart. [Stefan Fritsch]
*) core: Create new ap_state_query function that allows modules to determine
if the current configuration run is the initial one at server startup,
and if the server is started for testing/config dumping only.
[Stefan Fritsch]
*) mod_proxy: Runtime configuration of many parameters for existing
balancers via the balancer-manager. [Jim Jagielski]
*) mod_proxy: Runtime addition of new workers (BalancerMember) for existing
balancers via the balancer-manager. [Jim Jagielski]
*) mod_cache: When a bad Expires date is present, we need to behave as if
the Expires is in the past, not as if the Expires is missing. PR 16521.
[Co-Advisor <coad@measurement-factory.com>]
*) mod_cache: We must ignore quoted-string values that appear in a
Cache-Control header. PR 50199. [Graham Leggett]
*) mod_dav: Revert change to send 501 error if unknown Content-* header is
received for a PUT request. PR 42978. [Stefan Fritsch]
*) mod_cache: Respect s-maxage as described by RFC2616 14.9.3, which must
take precedence if present. PR 35247. [Graham Leggett]
*) mod_ssl: Fix a possible startup failure if multiple SSL vhosts
are configured with the same ServerName and private key file.
[Masahiro Matsuya <mmatsuya redhat.com>, Joe Orton]
*) mod_socache_dc: Make module compile by fixing some typos.
PR 50735 [Mark Montague <mark catseye.org>]
*) prefork: Update MPM state in children during a graceful stop or
restart. PR 41743. [Andrew Punch <andrew.punch 247realmedia.com>]
*) mod_mime: Ignore leading dots when looking for mime extensions.
PR 50434 [Stefan Fritsch]
*) core: Add support to set variables with the 'Define' directive. The
variables that can then be used in the config using the ${VAR} syntax
known from envvar interpolation. [Stefan Fritsch]
*) mod_proxy_http: make adding of X-Forwarded-* headers configurable.
ProxyAddHeaders defaults to On. [Vincent Deffontaines]
*) mod_slotmem_shm: Increase memory alignment for slotmem data.
[Rainer Jung]
*) mod_ssl: Add config options for OCSP: SSLOCSPResponderTimeout,
SSLOCSPResponseMaxAge, SSLOCSPResponseTimeSkew.
[Kaspar Brand <httpd-dev.2011 velox.ch>]
*) mod_ssl: Revamp output buffering to reduce network overhead for
output fragmented into many buckets, such as chunked HTTP responses.

*) core: Apply <If> sections to all requests, not only to file base requests.
Allow to use <If> inside <Directory>, <Location>, and <Files> sections.
The merging of <If> sections now happens after the merging of <Location>
sections, even if an <If> section is embedded inside a <Directory> or
<Files> section. [Stefan Fritsch]
*) mod_proxy: Refactor usage of shared data by dropping the scoreboard
and using slotmem. Create foundation for dynamic growth/changes of
members within a balancer. Remove BalancerNonce in favor of a
per-balancer 'nonce' parameter. [Jim Jagielski]
*) mod_status: Don't show slots which are disabled by MaxClients as open.
PR: 47022 [Jordi Prats <jordi prats gmail com>, Stefan Fritsch]
*) mpm_prefork: Fix ap_mpm_query results for AP_MPMQ_MAX_DAEMONS and
AP_MPMQ_MAX_THREADS.
*) mod_authz_core: Fix bug in merging logic if user-based and non-user-based
authorization directives were mixed. [Stefan Fritsch]
*) mod_authn_socache: change directive name from AuthnCacheProvider
to AuthnCacheProvideFor. The term "provider" is overloaded in
this module, and we should avoid confusion between the provider
of a backend (AuthnCacheSOCache) and the authn provider(s) for
which this module provides cacheing (AuthnCacheProvideFor).
[Nick Kew]
*) mod_proxy_http: Allocate the fake backend request from a child pool
of the backend connection, instead of misusing the pool of the frontend
request. Fixes a thread safety issue where buckets set aside in the
backend connection leak into other threads, and then disappear when
the frontend request is cleaned up, in turn causing corrupted buckets
to make other threads spin. [Graham Leggett]
*) mod_ssl: Change the format of the SSL_{CLIENT,SERVER}_{I,S}_DN variables
to be RFC 2253 compatible, convert non-ASCII characters to UTF8, and
escape other special characters with backslashes. The old format can
still be used with the LegacyDNStringFormat argument to SSLOptions.
*) core, mod_rewrite: Make the REQUEST_SCHEME variable available to
scripts and mod_rewrite. [Stefan Fritsch]
*) mod_rewrite: Allow to use arbitrary boolean expressions (ap_expr) in
RewriteCond. [Stefan Fritsch]
*) mod_rewrite: Allow to unset environment variables using E=!VAR.
PR 49512. [Mark Drayton <mark markdrayton info>, Stefan Fritsch]
*) mod_headers: Restore the 2.3.8 and earlier default for the first
argument of the Header directive ("onsuccess"). [Eric Covener]
*) core: Disallow the mixing of relative and absolute Options PR 33708.

*) core: When exporting request headers to HTTP_* environment variables,
drop variables whose names contain invalid characters. Describe in the
docs how to restore the old behaviour. [Malte S. Stretz <mss apache org>]
*) core: When selecting an IP-based virtual host, favor an exact match for
the port over a wildcard (or omitted) port instead of favoring the one
that came first in the configuration file. [Eric Covener]
Eric Covener
committed
*) core: Overlapping virtual host address/port combinations now implicitly
enable name-based virtual hosting for that address. The NameVirtualHost
directive has no effect, and _default_ is interpreted the same as "*".
[Eric Covener]
*) core: In the absence of any Options directives, the default is now
"FollowSymlinks" instead of "All". [Igor Galić]
*) rotatelogs: Add -e option to write logs through to stdout for optional
further processing. [Graham Leggett]
*) mod_ssl: Correctly read full lines in input filter when the line is
incomplete during first read. PR 50481. [Ruediger Pluem]
Stefan Fritsch
committed
*) mod_authz_core: Add AuthzSendForbiddenOnFailure directive to allow
sending '403 FORBIDDEN' instead of '401 UNAUTHORIZED' if authorization
fails for an authenticated user. PR 40721. [Stefan Fritsch]
*) mod_rewrite: Don't implicitly URL-escape the original query string
when no substitution has changed it. PR 50447. [Eric Covener]
*) core: Honor 'AcceptPathInfo OFF' during internal redirects,
such as per-directory mod_rewrite substitutions. PR 50349.

*) mod_rewrite: Add 'RewriteOptions InheritBefore' to put the base
rules/conditions before the overridden rules/conditions. PR 39313.
[Jérôme Grandjanny <jerome.grandjanny cea.fr>]
*) mod_autoindex: add IndexIgnoreReset to reset the list of IndexIgnored
filenames in higher precedence configuration sections. PR 24243.
[Eric Covener]
*) mod_cgid: RLimit* directive support for mod_cgid. PR 42135
[Eric Covener]
*) core: Fail startup when the argument to ServerName looks like a glob
or a regular expression instead of a hostname (*?[]). PR 39863
[Rahul Nair <rahul.g.nair gmail.com>]
*) mod_userdir: Add merging of enable, disable, and filename arguments
to UserDir directive, leaving enable/disable of userlists unmerged.
Eric Covener
committed
*) httpd: When no -k option is provided on the httpd command line, the server
was starting without checking for an existing pidfile. PR 50350
