Things That Need Fixing
=======================
+- Website
+ - decide, whether to stick with httpd.apache.org/docs-x.y/
+ scheme or choose another
+ - /manual/x.y/
+ - /x.y/manual/
+ - ?
+
- XML
- Rewriting of the remainder of the manual into xml is in
progress. See the bottom of this file for status info.
- Bill Rowe and Bill Stoddard are good contacts for tech questions.
- New Auth system
- (Wait on this until the code has stabalized a little)
- - With the new auth system, we have a bunch of directives that are
- duplicated in multiple modules, where one of the modules is obsolete.
- We probably need to mark the old modules as <status>obsolete</status>
- and key on that to omit them from the directive index, etc.
- - Much clean-up and enhancement of docs
+ - Much clean-up and enhancement of aaa howto
- Independent note on how to upgrade to new auth system
- Figure out what to do about the 2.0 FAQ
- mod_proxy: updates for 2.0
- mod_status: updates for 2.0
- mod_example: updates for 2.0
- - mod_file_cache: missing documentation
-
- man pages
- Convert from nroff to our xml format. See list at bottom.
- MPM documentation
- Non unix/windows MPMs still need to be completed.
- the perchild directives in threaded/worker need docs
+ - both in progress --nd
+
+ - explain what the following command line options do
+ (perhaps in the developer/debugging docs):
+ -D DEBUG
+ -D ONE_PROCESS
+ one-process-mode == no threads, i.e. only one
+ process handling the requests in a single loop?
+ -D NO_DETACH (not in every MPM avail.)
+ no daemon, but detached from terminal?
+ -D FOREGROUND (not in every MPM avail.)
+ ?
- Individual docs will need some cleanup.
- misc/custom_errordocs.html needs to be updated to
style in the css.
- New index: directives by context, including listing which directives
are available for each AllowOverride setting.
+ - New index: backout modules by type (aaa, mappers, loggers etc.)
+ probably by introducing a <category> element in modulesynopsis
- Use a tag like <var> in place of <em> for things like the
<syntax> listing.
- - nd volunteers
+ - in progress
- add letter links to glossary and quickreference,
perhaps also a term overview (sidebar)
- cross references between the different languages,
* Improving the "security docs"
- More content and better organisation.
+ - mod_dav ressources are owned by the httpd
* General cleaning and improving of module docs
