CURRENT RELEASE NOTES:


GA PLAN:

 Jim proposes final beta release the mid/end of Sept, with a
 GA in October (at the latest). Jim volunteers to RM these.

RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS:

  FOR GA:

  * Modules that are not ready for production use must be removed.
    The same for modules without documentation.

    These modulese will be removed after branching 2.4.x from trunk.
    If anyone disagrees, please comment.

    - MPM simple (unfinished; buggy)
    - mod_serf (which is optimal for async httpd anyways; didn't work
      with MPM event last time sf tested it)
    - mod_noloris (in experimental; obsoleted by mod_reqtimeout)
    
    See https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/docs/STATUS 
    under 'modules docs' for a more comprehensive list of undocumented modules. 

  * The mod_session* modules need to be checked that their hooks respect
    the returning of int (HTTP status codes) and apr_status_t as appropriate,
    and any anomolies fixed.
    jim sez: from what I can see, mod_session* is no worse that other
             modules that mix these 2 types... clean up is
             forthcoming but should not be considered a blocker, imo
    pgollucci: +1 jim
    wrowe asks: what's the API change required?
    wrowe asks; why are we shipping this if it requires apr_ssl
 
  * mod_ssl's proxy support only allows one proxy client certificate per
    frontend virtual host. Lift this restriction.

    wrowe asks: what's the API change required?

  * INCLUDE mod_fcgid with 2.4.0, esp to help php users etc to enjoy
    a painless event mpm experience.
    sf: can be done in 2.4.x>0

  * Decide and document the API guarantees for mod_lua. Current consensous at
    the hackathon seems to be that mod_lua should be released as experimental
    with a note that the API may change during 2.4.x.

  FOR BETA:

  OLD ISSUES THAT WERE THOUGHT TO BE SHOWSTOPPERS FOR 2.4 BUT OBVIOUSLY WEREN'T:

  * Handling of non-trailing / config by non-default handler is broken

@@ -384,15 +321,11 @@ TODO ISSUES REMAINING IN MOD_SSL:

  * CRL callback should be pluggable

  * session cache store should be pluggable

  * init functions should return status code rather than ssl_die()

  * ssl_engine_pphrase.c needs to be reworked so it is generic enough
    to also decrypt proxy keys

  * output warning when allowing SSL v2.0 ? its so old

WISH LIST
  * mod_proxy: Ability to run SSL over proxy gateway connections,
    encrypting (or reencrypting) at the proxy.
