+ <p>
+ The Apache Software Foundation and the Apache HTTP Server Project are

+ 2.0.48 as compared to 2.0.47.
+</p>
+ <p>
+ This version of Apache is principally a bug fix release. A summary of

+ note is that 2.0.48 addresses two security vulnerabilities:
+</p>
+ <p>

+</p>
+ <p>
+ This release is compatible with modules compiled for 2.0.42 and later
+ versions. We consider this release to be the best version of Apache
+ available and encourage users of all prior versions to upgrade.
+</p>
+ <p>
+ Apache 2.0.48 is available for download from<br />
+ <a

+</p>
+ <p>
+ Please see the CHANGES_2.0 file, linked from the above page, for

+ <p>
+ Apache 2.0 offers numerous enhancements, improvements, and performance

+</p>
+ <p>
+ When upgrading or installing this version of Apache, please keep
+ in mind the following:<br />
+ If you intend to use Apache with one of the threaded MPMs, you must
+ ensure that the modules (and the libraries they depend on) that you
+ will be using are thread-safe. Please contact the vendors of these

+ <h3>29 October 2003 - Apache HTTP Server 1.3.29 Released</h3>
+</a>
+ <p>
+ The Apache Software Foundation and The Apache HTTP Server Project are
+ pleased to announce the release of version 1.3.29 of the Apache HTTP
+ Server ("Apache"). This Announcement notes the significant changes
+ in 1.3.29 as compared to 1.3.28. The Announcement is also available
+ in German from
+ <a
href="http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/Announcement.html.de">http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/Announcement.html.de</a>.
+</p>
+ <p>
+ This version of Apache is principally a bug and security fix release.
+ A partial summary of the bug fixes is given at the end of this
+document.<br />
+ A full listing of changes can be found in the CHANGES file. Of
+ particular note is that 1.3.29 addresses and fixes 1 potential
+ security issue:
+</p>
+ <p>
+ o CAN-2003-0542 (cve.mitre.org)
+ Fix buffer overflows in mod_alias and mod_rewrite which occurred
+if
+ one configured a regular expression with more than 9 captures.
+</p>
+ <p>
+ We consider Apache 1.3.29 to be the best version of Apache 1.3
+available
+ and we strongly recommend that users of older versions, especially of
+ the 1.1.x and 1.2.x family, upgrade as soon as possible. No further
+ releases will be made in the 1.2.x family.
+</p>
+ <p>
+ Apache 1.3.29 is available for download from:<br />
+ <a
href="http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi">http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi</a>

+</p>
+ <p>
+ Please consult the CHANGES_1.3 file for a full list of changes.
+</p>
+ <p>
+ As of Apache 1.3.12 binary distributions contain all standard Apache
+ modules as shared objects (if supported by the platform) and include
+ full source code. Installation is easily done by executing the
+ included install script. See the README.bindist and INSTALL.bindist
+ files for a complete explanation. Please note that the binary
+ distributions are only provided for your convenience and current
+ distributions for specific platforms are not always available. Win32
+ binary distributions are based on the Microsoft Installer (.MSI)
+ technology. While development continues to make this installation
+method
+ more robust, questions should be directed to the
+ news:comp.infosystems.www.servers.ms-windows newsgroup.
+</p>
+ <p>
+ For an overview of new features introduced after 1.2 please see<br />
+ <a
href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/new_features_1_3.html">http://httpd.apache.org/docs/new_features_1_3.html</a>
+</p>
+ <p>
+ In general, Apache 1.3 offers several substantial improvements over
+ version 1.2, including better performance, reliability and a wider
+ range of supported platforms, including Windows NT and 2000 (which
+ fall under the "Win32" label), OS2, Netware, and TPF threaded
+ platforms.
+</p>
+ <p>
+ Apache is the most popular web server in the known universe; over
+half
+ of the servers on the Internet are running Apache or one of its
+ variants.
+</p>
+ <p>
+ IMPORTANT NOTE FOR APACHE USERS: Apache 1.3 was designed for Unix
+OS
+ variants. While the ports to non-Unix platforms (such as Win32,
+Netware
+ or OS2) are of an acceptable quality, Apache 1.3 is not optimized for
+ these platforms. Security, stability, or performance issues on these
+ non-Unix ports do not generally apply to the Unix version, due to
+ software's Unix origin.
+</p>
+ <p>
+ Apache 2.0 has been structured for multiple operating systems from
+its
+ inception, by introducing the Apache Portability Library and MPM
+modules.
+ Users on non-Unix platforms are strongly encouraged to move up to
+ Apache 2.0 for better performance, stability and security on their
+ platforms.
+</p>
+ <p>
+For more information, see the <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/">Apache HTTP Server
Project WebSite</a>.

+ <h3>29 October 2003 - Apache HTTP Server 1.3.29 Released</h3>
+</a>
+<p>
+ The Apache Software Foundation and The Apache HTTP Server Project are
+ pleased to announce the release of version 1.3.29 of the Apache HTTP
+ Server ("Apache"). This Announcement notes the significant changes
+ in 1.3.29 as compared to 1.3.28. The Announcement is also available
+ in German from
+ <a
href="http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/Announcement.html.de">http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/Announcement.html.de</a>.
+</p>
+<p>
+ This version of Apache is principally a bug and security fix release.
+ A partial summary of the bug fixes is given at the end of this
+document.<br/>
+ A full listing of changes can be found in the CHANGES file. Of
+ particular note is that 1.3.29 addresses and fixes 1 potential
+ security issue:
+</p>
+<p>
+ o CAN-2003-0542 (cve.mitre.org)
+ Fix buffer overflows in mod_alias and mod_rewrite which occurred
+if
+ one configured a regular expression with more than 9 captures.
+</p>
+<p>
+ We consider Apache 1.3.29 to be the best version of Apache 1.3
+available
+ and we strongly recommend that users of older versions, especially of
+ the 1.1.x and 1.2.x family, upgrade as soon as possible. No further
+ releases will be made in the 1.2.x family.
+</p>
+<p>
+ Apache 1.3.29 is available for download from:<br/>

+ Please consult the CHANGES_1.3 file for a full list of changes.
+</p>
+<p>
+ As of Apache 1.3.12 binary distributions contain all standard Apache
+ modules as shared objects (if supported by the platform) and include
+ full source code. Installation is easily done by executing the
+ included install script. See the README.bindist and INSTALL.bindist
+ files for a complete explanation. Please note that the binary
+ distributions are only provided for your convenience and current
+ distributions for specific platforms are not always available. Win32
+ binary distributions are based on the Microsoft Installer (.MSI)
+ technology. While development continues to make this installation
+method
+ more robust, questions should be directed to the
+ news:comp.infosystems.www.servers.ms-windows newsgroup.
+</p>
+<p>
+ For an overview of new features introduced after 1.2 please see<br/>

href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/new_features_1_3.html">http://httpd.apache.org/docs/new_features_1_3.html</a>
+</p>
+<p>
+ In general, Apache 1.3 offers several substantial improvements over
+ version 1.2, including better performance, reliability and a wider
+ range of supported platforms, including Windows NT and 2000 (which
+ fall under the "Win32" label), OS2, Netware, and TPF threaded
+ platforms.
+</p>
+<p>
+ Apache is the most popular web server in the known universe; over
+half
+ of the servers on the Internet are running Apache or one of its
+ variants.
+</p>
+<p>
+ IMPORTANT NOTE FOR APACHE USERS: Apache 1.3 was designed for Unix
+OS
+ variants. While the ports to non-Unix platforms (such as Win32,
+Netware
+ or OS2) are of an acceptable quality, Apache 1.3 is not optimized for
+ these platforms. Security, stability, or performance issues on these
+ non-Unix ports do not generally apply to the Unix version, due to
+ software's Unix origin.
+</p>
+<p>
+ Apache 2.0 has been structured for multiple operating systems from
+its
+ inception, by introducing the Apache Portability Library and MPM
+modules.
+ Users on non-Unix platforms are strongly encouraged to move up to
+ Apache 2.0 for better performance, stability and security on their
+ platforms.
