Learn tact, man. To further elaborate... https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/httpd/patches/ * contains nothing to protect adopters of our beta since 2.3.5 * contains few of the patches necessary to close issues since 2.2.21 I think this release is a waste of the project's time and energy, and I had forewarned you of that opinion on private lists. Until this project learns to protect users from published issues, -1 to any further version-major releases.
