*) Change the verbage on the ScoreBoardFile in our default configs.
Also change the default to be commented out (unspecified) so we
get anonymous shared memory by default. [Aaron Bannert]
*) Implement new ScoreBoardFile directive logic. This affects how
we create the scoreboard's shared memory segment. If the directive
is present, a name-based segment is created. If the directive is
not present, first an anonymous segment is created, and if that
fails, a name-based segment is created from a file of the name
DEFAULT_SCOREBOARD. This gives third-party applications the
ability to access our scoreboard. [Aaron Bannert]

*) Allow mod_deflate to work with non-GET requests and properly send
Content-Lengths. [Sander Striker <striker@apache.org>]
*) Fix ap_directory_merge() to correctly merge configs when there is
no <Directory /> block. [Justin Erenkrantz, William Rowe]
*) Remove spurious debug messsages that are normal under HTTP
keep-alive logic. [Jeff Trawick, Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Fix a bug in mod_cgid that would prevent proper shutdown death
of the cgid process. [Aaron Bannert]
*) Add signal handling back in to the worker MPM for the one_process
(-X, -DDEBUG, -DONE_PROCESS) case. [Aaron Bannert]
*) Performance: Reuse per-connection transaction pools in the
worker MPM, rather than destroying and recreating them. [Brian Pane]
*) Remove all signals from the worker MPM's child process. Instead,
the parent uses the Pipe of Death for all communication with the
child processes. [Ryan Bloom]
*) mod_negotiation: ForceLanguagePriority now uses 'Prefer' as the
default if the directive is not specified. This mirrors older
behavior without changes to the httpd.conf. [William Rowe]
*) Win32: solve the win32 service problems in 2.0.31-alpha, by fixing
the service, mpm and logging code, and bugs in apr_file_open_stderr
and apr_file_dup2 functions. Win2K/XP services have no handles
associated for stdin/out/err, which caused unpredictable behavior
in the prior release. [William Rowe, Bill Stoddard]
*) Win32: simplify the Application Event Log messages, since there isn't
likely to be 'more information in the error log' before an error log
has been opened. [William Rowe]
*) Win32: substantial cleanup to the mpm_winnt code for legibility and
to follow the program flow of other MPMs. [Ryan Bloom, William Rowe]
*) Win32: apache -k shutdown now behaves like apache -k stop.
[Bill Stoddard]
*) Fix prefork to not kill the parent if a child hits a resource shortage
on accept(). [Greg Ames]
*) Fix seg faults that occur when what should be the httpd request line
starts with \r\n followed by garbage. [Greg Ames]
*) Allow statically linked support binaries with the new
--enable-static-support flag, and enable this behavior in
the binbuild script. Also add a new --enable-static-htdbm
flag. [Aaron Bannert]

*) Allow mod_autoindex to serve symlinks if permitted and attempt to
do only one stat() call when generating the directory listings.
[Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Fix resolve_symlink to save the original symlink name if known.
[Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Be a bit more sane with regard to CanonicalNames. If the user has
specified they want to use the CanonicalName, but they have not
configured a port with the ServerName, then use the same port that
the original request used. [Ryan Bloom and Ken Coar]
*) In core_input_filter, check for an empty brigade after
APR_BRIGADE_NORMALIZE(). Otherwise, we can get segfaults if a
client says it will post some data but we get FIN before any
data arrives. [Jeff Trawick]
*) Not being able to bind to the socket is a fatal error. We should
print an error to the console, and return a non-zero status code.
With these changes, all of the Unix MPMs do that correctly.
[Ryan Bloom]
*) suexec: Allow HTTPS and SSL_* environment variables to be passed
through to CGI scripts. PR 9163
[Brian Reid <breid@customlogic.com>,
Zvi Har'El <rl@math.technion.ac.il>]
*) binbuild.sh: Make sure that we use the expat from our source
tree so that there aren't any surprises on the target machine.
[Jeff Trawick]
*) mod_cgid: Add retry logic for when the daemon can't fork fast
enough to keep up with new requests. Start using
HTTP_SERVER_UNAVAILABLE instead of HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR
when we can't talk to the daemon. [Jeff Trawick]

*) apxs: LTFLAGS envvar can override default libtool options. Try
"LTFLAGS=' ' apxs -c mod_foo.c" to see what libtool does under
the covers. [Jeff Trawick]
*) The Location: response header field, used for external
redirect, *must* be an absoluteURI. The Redirect directive
tested for that, but RedirectMatch didn't -- it would allow
almost anything through. Now it will try to turn an abs_path
into an absoluteURI, but it will correctly varf like Redirect
if the final redirection target isn't an absoluteURI. [Ken Coar]
*) Create the scoreboard (in the parent) in a global pool context,
so it survives graceful restarts. This fixes a SEGV during
graceful restarts. [Aaron Bannert]
*) Add a timeout option to the proxy code 'ProxyTimeout'
[Ian Holsman]
*) FTP directory listings are now always retrieved in ASCII mode.
The FTP proxy properly escapes URI's and HTML in the generated
listing, and escapes the path components when talking to the FTP
server. It is now possible to browse the root directory by using
a url like: ftp://user@host/%2f/ (ported from apache_1.3.24)
Also, the last path component may contain wildcard characters
'*' and '?', and if they do, a directory listing is created instead
of a file retrieval. Example: ftp://user@host/httpd/server/*.c
[Martin Kraemer]
*) Added single-listener unserialized accept support to the
worker MPM [Brian Pane]
*) New Directive for mod_proxy: 'ProxyPreserveHost'. This passes
the incoming host header through to the proxied server
[Geoff <g.russell@ieee.org>]
*) New Directive Option for ProxyPass. It now can block a location
from being proxied [Jukka Pihl <jukka.pihl@entirem.com>]
*) Don't let the default handler try to serve a raw directory. At
best you get gibberish. Much worse things can happen depending
on the OS. [Jeff Trawick]
*) Change the pre_config hook to return a value. Modules can now emit
an error message and then cause the server to quit gracefully during
startup. This required a bump to the MMN. [Aaron Bannert]
*) Fix some unix socket descriptor leaks in the handler side of
mod_cgid (the part that runs in the server process). Whack a
silly "close(-1)" in the handler too. [Jeff Trawick]
*) Change the pre_mpm hook to return a value, so that scoreboard
init errors percolate up to code that knows how to exit
cleanly. This required a bump to the MMN. [Jeff Trawick]
*) Add the socket back to the conn_rec and remove the create_connection
hook. The create_connection hook had a design flaw that did not
allow creating connections based on vhost info. [Bill Stoddard]
*) Fixed PATH_INFO and QUERY_STRING from mod_negotiation results.
Resolves the common case of using negotation to resolve the request
/script/foo for /script.cgi/foo. [William Rowe]
*) Added new functions ap_add_(input|output)_filter_handle to
allow modules to bypass the usual filter name lookup when
adding hard-coded filters to a request [Brian Pane]
*) caching should now work on subrequests (still very experimental)
*) The Win32 mpm_winnt now has a shared scoreboard. [William Rowe]
*) Change ap_get_brigade prototype to use apr_off_t instead of apr_off_t*.
[Justin Erenkrantz]

*) Refactor ap_rgetline so that it does not use an internal brigade.
Change ap_rgetline's prototype to return errors. [Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Remove mod_auth_db. [Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Do not install unnecessary pcre headers like config.h and internal.h.
[Joe Orton <joe@manyfish.co.uk>]
*) Change in quick_hanlder behavior for subrequests. it now passes DONE
(as it does for a normal request). quick_handled sub-requests now work
in mod-include [Ian Holsman]
*) Change SUBREQ_CORE so that it is a 'HTTP_HEADER' filter instead of
'CONTENT' one, as it needs to run AFTER all content headers
*) Rename BeOS MPM directive RequestsPerThread to MaxRequestsPerThread.
[Lars Eilebrecht]
*) Split out blocking from the mode in the input filters.
