+1, see attached patch which adds dates to the index and download  
pages (see changes to site.vsl which add a 2nd column to the  
relevant section headers as soon as a new date= attribute is  
present).


Please test and give your opinion, works for me on Safari and  
Firefox...


Got a chance to test it on IE today, looks fine so I've added it at  
the moment.


Cheers,

I like the idea of adding a date to each news item, be it on httpd.a.o,
or our www.apache.org.  +1.

(Especially since the datestamps of our tarballs are several days prior
to each release).

You can also get it from here for now:
http://projects.apache.org/projects/http_server.html

or as a feed:
http://projects.apache.org/feeds/rss/http_server.xml

Is there a reason for the coyness or is it just an oversight, like

PGP to the rescue!  Just downloaded the release, and Safari preserves  
the modification time:

Now when I verify the PGP signature:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] downloads $ gpg --verify httpd-2.2.6.tar.gz.asc
gpg: Signature made Tue Sep  4 13:09:41 2007 PDT using DSA key ID  
08C975E5

gpg: Good signature from Jim Jagielski [EMAIL PROTECTED]
gpg: aka Jim Jagielski [EMAIL PROTECTED]
gpg: aka Jim Jagielski [EMAIL PROTECTED]
gpg: aka Jim Jagielski [EMAIL PROTECTED]
gpg: aka Jim Jagielski [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Note the time stamp on the signature.  Of course this is the time of  
the clock on Jim's computer: I don't think GPG can get a trusted  
timestamp for signatures.  I looked through the options and saw none.


Perhaps that's something to look into, but for now there is a  
timestamp on the signature.
