Hi

Oh I see - I had not realised this. In that case, I agree that sticking with 0.9.x is the only sensible option at this point in time :)

    Hi,

    Maybe the simple option is to do the final release with the
    old/existing bundled APR, but put a foot note in the release notes
    that the newer APR v1.4.8/1.5.2 has been confirmed to successfully
    work with 2.0.65. This way it may give confidence to anyone who is
    stuck on 2.0.x for some reason to use the newer APR/APR-util if
    needs be.


APR/APR-util 1.x won't work with httpd 2.0.x. Someone continuing to use 2.0.x will need to hand-pick or backport fixes from apr/apr-util 0.9.x or later levels. But then they'll have to backport fixes from httpd too. The line was drawn at slightly different places for httpd vs. apr/apr-util, but the long term picture is the same: There is effort to remain on httpd 2.0.x if you want to pick up any code fixes, and the recommendation is clear.



    Regards,
    Mike

            I am not at all concerned
            whether APR 0.9 is
            released again or not since folks had years to take that
            up in our
            discussions of
            putting httpd 2.0 to bed, yet nobody so much as suggested
            a release,
            nevermind some
            volunteer to act on it.

        true; but I thought that most of us probably forgot about that
        we bundle APR/APU with 2.0.x - like I did; the lack of APR/APU
        fixes came only to my attention when I was on building the
        2.0.65 binaries ...
        but since nobody else expressed an oppinion about then thats
        fine, and I shut up.

            or if you have concurred with the group consensus to let
            this story end
            as of Jun 2013.

        I have. Just did put the NetWare bins up; go ahead and release.

        Gün.
