Release:
RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS:
+ * Revert to a 1.3 behavior and allow a non-file request to travel
+ through the request cycle. If any request gets to the core handler,
+ without a flag that this r->filename was tested by dir/file_walk,
+ then we 500 at the very end of the request cycle. This provides
+ authors of older modules better compatibility, while still improving
+ the security and robustness of 2.0. This does not remove the new
+ map_to_storage hook itself, but makes it optional for some cases.
+
+ * There is an observation that svn + ssl has a significant interaction
+ in dir_merge sections with the new location_walk optimization. This
+ could reflect a bug in retrieving the cached location_walk, or some
+ other nasty mis-config. Core dump post to httpd-dev;
+ Message-ID: <JLEGKKNELMHCJPNMOKHOIENKEIAA.striker@apache.org>
+
+ * There is an interesting problem with directory_walk, now that it is
+ optional (may be overridden by a map_to_storage hook.) The change
+ of per_dir_default for a vhost switch doesn't happen until dir_walk.
+ This switch needs to be pushed out of directory_walk, perhaps the
+ burden is put on the 'switcher' of the ->server entry, such as
+ mod_vhost_alias itself.
+
* There is a bug in how we sort some hooks, at least the pre-config
hook. The first time we call the hooks, they are in the correct
order, but the second time, we don't sort them correctly. Currently,
modules/http/config2.m4 to work around this problem, it should moved
back when this is fixed. rbb
- * The AddInputFilter and AddOutputFilter directives do not allow the
- administrator to remove or reorder filters. Once a filter is added
- in a container, it is present in any subcontainers. It can only be
- added to the filter chain after any filters specified in enclosing
- containers.
+ * The Add...Filter and Set...Filter directives do not allow the
+ administrator to order filters, beyond the order of filename (mime)
+ extensions. It isn't clear if Set...Filter(s) should be inserted
+ before or after the Add...Filter(s) which are ordered by sequence of
+ filename extensions. Add...FilterByType will add to this quandry.
+ Some sort of resolution needs to be proposed,
* mod_dir should normally redirect ALL directory requests which do
not include a trailing slash on the URI. However, if a "notes"
RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP:
+ * Allow the DocumentRoot directive within <Location > scopes? This
+ allows the beloved (crusty) Alias /foo/ /somepath/foo/ followed
+ by a <Directory /somepath/foo> to become simply
+ <Location /foo/> DocumentRoot /somefile/foo (IMHO a bit more legible
+ and in-your-face.) This proposed change would not depricate Alias.
+
* add mod_gz to httpd-2.0 (in modules/experimental/)
