You have done a huge chunk of work already, and I haven't noticed anything major that I disagree with. Of course, there is even more work left to do. Given that it's just a snapshot, I think the only thing I can say is: continue your good work :-) I don't have much time for the 2.3 package yet and I can't say yet when that will change. But I have done a few tweaks today. Some more notes: Do we need the apache2.2-bin transitional package? Packages depending on it need to be updated anyway, for the config changes. Maybe it would be nice for a2enmod to support or'ed dependencies. This would be especially useful for the slotmem and socache modules. There is a 2.4.0 release candidate available at http://httpd.apache.org/dev/dist/ . It has not been and will never be released, but it will be closer to the final 2.4.x GA release than 2.3.16. Maybe it would make sense to merge that already. For some of the version numbers in the control file, it would be ok to just use "<< 2.3", which is shorter and more readable, IMHO. For some changes, like the suexec packaging, we will just have to see how usable they turn out to be in practice. BTW, if you notice things that really should go upstream, tell me, or note them somewhere. I think I have already started a list of debian bugs that are fixed in 2.4. So you may want to defer working on that until I have integrated that into the changelog. Cheers, Stefan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
