RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS:

  *  PR: 27023 Cookie could not delivered if the cookie made before
         proxy module. Jim will wait 24 hours but not hold
         off on 1.3.30 after that to address this. Will be
         placed in 'NON-SHOWSTOPPERS' at that point.

RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP:

   * isn't ap_die() broken with recognizing recursive errors
       Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
        +1: jeff, jim

   * Current vote on 3 PRs for inclusion:
      Bugz #17877 (passing chunked encoding thru proxy)
      (still checking if RFC compliant... vote is on the
       correctness of the patch code only).
        +1: jim, chuck, minfrin
      Bugz #9181 (Unable to set headers on non-2XX responses)
        +1: Martin, Jim
      Gnats #10246 (Add ProxyConnAllow directive)
        +0: Martin (or rather -.5, see dev@ Message
                    <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>)

    * htpasswd.c and htdigest.c use tmpnam()... consider using
      mkstemp() when available.
        Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
        Status:
        
    * Dean's "unescaping hell" (unescaping the various URI components
      at the right time and place, esp. unescaping the host name).
        Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
        Status:

    * Martin observed a core dump because a ipaddr_chain struct contains
      a NULL-"server" pointer when being dereferenced by invoking "httpd -S".
        Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
        Status: Workaround enabled. Clean solution can come after 1.3.19

    * long pathnames with many components and no AllowOverride None
      Workaround is to define <Directory /> with AllowOverride None,
      which is something all sites should do in any case.
        Status: Marc was looking at it.  (Will asks 'wasn't this patched?')

    * Ronald Tschalär's patch to mod_proxy to allow other modules to
      set headers too (needed by mod_auth_digest)
        Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
        Status:


Available Patches (Most likely, will be ported to 2.0 as appropriate):

   *  A rewrite of ap_unparse_uri_components() by Jeffrey W. Baker
     <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> to more fully close some segfault potential.
        Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
        Status:  Jim +1 (for 1.3.19), Martin +0

    * Andrew Ford's patch (1999/12/05) to add absolute times to mod_expires
        Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
        Status: Martin +1, Jim +1, Ken +1 (on concept)

    * Raymond S Brand's path to mod_autoindex to fix the header/readme
      include processing so the envariables are correct for the included
      documents.  (Actually, there are two variants in the patch message,
      for two different ways of doing it.)
        Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
        Status: Martin +1(concept)

    * Jayaram's patch (10/27/99) for bugfix to mod_autoindex
      IndexIgnore <file-extension> should hide the files with this file-
      extension in directory listings. This was NOT happening because the 
      total filename was being compared with the file-extension.
      Status: Martin +1(untested), Ken +1(untested)
       
    * Salvador Ortiz Garcia <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>' patch to allow DirectoryIndex
      to refer to URIs for non-static resources.
        MID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
        Status: Ken +1 (on concept), Lars +1 (on concept)

    * Brian Havard's patch to remove dependency of mod_auth_dbm on mod_auth.
      (PR#2598)
        Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
        Status: Lars +1 (on concept), Ken +1 (on concept),
                Martin +1(untested)

    * Aidan Cully's patch to allow assignment of 'ownership' of resources
      to either the server UID or the file's owner.
        Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
        Status: Ken +1, Dean +1, Randy +1, Lars +0, Jim +1

In progress:

Needs patch:

    * get_path_info bug; ap_get_remote_host should be ap_vformatter instead.
      See: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

    * URI issues
        - RFC2068 requires a server to recognize its own IP addr(s) in
        dot notation, we do this fine if the user follows the
        dns-caveats documentation... we should handle it in the case
        the user doesn't ever supply a dot-notation address.

    * Problems dealing with .-rooted domain names such as "twinlark."
        versus "twinlark.arctic.org.".  See the thread containing
        Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for more
        details.  In particular this affects the correctness of the
        proxy and the vhost mechanism.

    * proxy_*_canon routines use r->proxyreq incorrectly.  See
        <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Open issues:

    * Should we provide a way to force CustomError responses past IE's
      'prettify-if-less-than-N-bytes' bogosity?

    * general/3787: SERVER_PORT is always 80 if client comes to any port
      => needs review by the protocol guys, I think.

    * All DBMs suffer from confusion in dbmmanage (perl script) since the
        dbmmanage creates in the first-matched dbm format.  This is not
        necessarily the library that Apache was built with.  Aught to
        rewrite dbmmanage with the proper library for clean administration.

    * Marc's socket options like source routing (kill them?)
        Marc, Martin say Yes

    * In ap_bclose() there's no test that (fb->fd != -1) -- so it's
      possible that it'll do something completely bogus when it's 
      used for read-only things. - Dean Gaudet

    * Roy's HTTP/1.1 Wishlist items:
        1) byte range error handling

    * use of spawnvp in uncompress_child in mod_mime_magic - doesn't
      use the new child_info structure, is this still safe?  Needs to be 
      looked at.

    * suexec doesn't understand argv parameters; e.g.

        <!--#exec cmd="./ls -l" -->

      fails even when "ls" is in the same directory because suexec is trying
      to stat a file called "ls -l".  A patch for this is available at

        http://www.xnet.com/~emarshal/suexec.diff

      and it's not bad except that it doesn't handle programs with spaces in
      the filename (think win32, or samba-mounted filesystems).  There are
      several PR's to this and I don't see for security reasons why we can't
      accomodate it, though it does add complexity to suexec.c.
      Accepting quoted executable names solves that issue, except that the
      exec cmd="" parsing needs to accept escaped quotes.
      PR #1120
      Brian: +1
        Status: Already resolved in Apache 2.0 - exec is defined as passing
                the cmd="" argument as argv[0], which means it is -only- the
                file name to execute (with spaces allowed in the name.)
      
Win32/Netware specific issues:

    * mod_rewrite's cache isn't threadsafe, needs a mutex on Win32/Netware
      (and OS/2?)

    * apparently either "BrowserMatch" or the "nokeepalive" variable
      cause instability - see PR#1729.
