Sender: owner-new-httpd@apache.org Precedence: bulk Reply-To: new-httpd@apache.org ANNOUNCING RELEASE 1.4 OF THE NCSA HTTPD NCSA httpd Release 1.4 is now available from ftp://ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu/Web/httpd/Unix/ncsa_httpd/httpd_1.4 It includes a significant performance improvement over Release 1.3. (See http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/InformationServers/Performance/V1.4/report.html) The performance improvement was achieved by pre-forking child processes and code optimizations. A complete list of the NCSA httpd enhancements is available at http://hoohoo.ncsa.uiuc.edu/docs/Upgrade.html. The 1.4 documentation is available at http://hoohoo.ncsa.uiuc.edu/docs/Overview.html, but we are still updating some areas. We will be using HyperNews to track bugs, discuss possible enhancements and for FAQ and RAQ (recently asked questions). Please watch http://union.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HyperNews/get/www/ncsa-httpd.html for future developments. Sincerely, Elizabeth Frank NCSA httpd Development Team efrank@ncsa.uiuc.edu
