1.1 apache-site/dist/Announcement.html Index: Announcement.html =================================================================== Apache 1.3 Beta 6 Released
  
   Apache 1.3 Beta 6 Released
   ==========================
  
   The Apache Group is pleased to announce the release of the 1.3b6 version
   of Apache, the latest beta release of the Apache HTTP server. 1.3b6 is
   a release candidate for Apache 1.3.0.
   
   This version is stable under UNIX but remains beta-level under Win32. No
   new features are expected between 1.3b6 and 1.3.0, so please give this
   version a good thrashing in order to provide as much feedback as possible
   to the Apache Group before the release of 1.3.0.
  
   To grab the latest Apache distribution, check out
       http://www.apache.org/dist/
   and the huge list of available "International Mirror Sites" at
