[Dlhttpd-devel] re-starting

[Renato N. B. <rnb...@ya...>]

Hello, guys...

First of all, I come here to announce that almost ALL old guys from this list have been unsubscribed form the Developer list (this msg is copied to the Admin's list too). The only one left is Bogdan - well, as far as I see, the only one interested in continuing, after my old msg about re-starting the project. 

Second, I welcome 2 new members to the team, Daniel (dan...@gm...) and Ben (lac...@gm...). Welcome!! 

Third: there are other 3 guys joining - I'll addd them to the list as soon as I know their real mail addresses (hehehe).

Finally, the idea is to implement the old 'ACL' feature that we so much want, for so long time... :) As I was "designing" it, and also suggested by Daniel, we could use some scheme like in Apache, that uses its .htaccess files in protected dirs/sites...

Well, that's it. More than this, let me see...I don't remmeber if I said, but now all the source and stuff  are moved to Subversion, so we better use it instead of CVS - I'll disable it soon, if I can :) Reasons: uses simple httpS port with no need to install extra stuff (aka SSH) for encryption; works just like cvs, u'll probably see no big difference if you used tortoisecvs - tortoisesvn is almost the same thing...; and the best: firewalls won't block that port... unless u're in a  freak company that doesn't allow you to access anywhere via https, or instead of blocking, it just "allows" some few sites... but at least this fixes my own problem for connection and the other way is so rare, that i hope everyone can use this repository with no problems :)
