In progress:

    * Martin Kraemer's [PATCH] Parsing URI into its components 
	This has "evolved" into a new module: util_uri. Martin
	will post when it's at a state where he's happy with it.

Needs patch:

Closed issues:

    * Removal of inetd mode
	Ken says he'll try to maintain it, since there are
	people/places who need it

Open issues:

    * discard_request_body only called in default_handler() and not die()
	which causes, for example, mod_cgi not to do the right
	thing. Add 'dummy = discard_request_body(r);' ?

    * Ken suggests that new check_cmd_context() and related defines
	should be non-static and in util_* so modules can use 'em.  (He
	didn't notice this flaw during the review.)

    * Sameer's mod_so implemetation
	See <199711092016.MAA17039@gabber.c2.net>
	Issues: Underscores: Should I try prepending, appending, and
	 ignoring? -> Alexei says look at Java
	 Location? os/unix ??

    * 206 vs. 200 issue on Content-Length
	See <Pine.BSF.3.95q.971102000930.5555B-100000@valis.worldgate.com>

    * Conditional logging and aplogger
	Dean broke piped logging, -DNO_OTHER_CHILD to disable the reliable
	stuff if you depend on piped logging.  I figure nobody must, since
	we haven't seen a bug report and it'd show up easily under moderate
	load. Brian thinks Cond. logging is taking us in an opposite
	direction from where we should be going.

    * Brian's ``strange performance delays''
	<3.0.3.32.19971030195222.008ac800@hyperreal.org>
	mod_proxy and garbage collection?
	see: <19971031104637.52990@deejai.mch.sni.de>

    * Marc's socket options like source routing (kill them?)
	Marc, Dean, Martin say Yes

    * PR#951 (CGIs on Win32)
	Open? Closed? Fixed?

    * NameVirtualHost
	Causes mucho confusion... Dean is ready to ``admit defeat''
	but should we let him? Lars suggests making NameVirtualHost
	a required directive or at least an error message, since
	it will snag many who go from 1.2 to 1.3.

    * DDA's adding a tray application to the Windoze version for ease of
      status/management.
	<01BCDB29.2C04DEB0@caravan.individual.com>
	<01BCDB2A.F8C09010@caravan.individual.com>
	Status: Ken +1, Sameer +1, Martin +1, Ben +1 (as long as
	we get a single executable)
	Paul: No like Win95 specific stuff

    * Apache Win32 v1.3b2 won't serve >16k
	Status: Has not be reproducable by project members
	Update: Ben has discovered the code that causes this. His
	patch works...

    * tarball issues:
       o Remove .Z files? Dean says yes, others don't really care
       o md5 or pgp or some combo of both?
       o Brian says yes... Jim says +1, Martin +1

    * The PR#918 patch above appears to have been bogus, should be fixed or
	reversed.  It has been reversed for now.

    * Martin's SEGV, and Alexei's GP Fault under windows (probably the same)

    * Marc's [BUG] include virtual and SCRIPT_NAME w/path_info
	<Pine.BSF.3.95.970928122038.21692C-100000@alive.znep.com>
