If I were bringing up musicblvd.com on httpd 2.0 instead of httpd 0.6.4 or whatever I used, I would be worried a little if httpd 1.0 had taken 5 years to actually come out instead of less than a year. The core for httpd 1.0 was done by 0.8 IIRC.
Roy's right, literally, but at some point it would be nice if 2.0 went to maintenance and got some stability (which it's trying to) and the -dev effort moved to 2.1 (which it has not). Unless we aren't concerned with ever releasing anything. Maybe we're not, anymore. 1.3.24, anyone? Or navel gazing... Chuck On Tuesday, February 26, 2002, at 04:34 PM, Roy T.
