Hey Dave, thanks a lot, for this update. Sounds great. Installation of the new module (1.4 aka the-now-called-1.1.1.1) works just as smooth as the first one (the-first-1.1.1.1). There were plenty of warnings during compile time. If you wish to see them, give me a short note, but I think you know them already (most of them because of unused vars).

It was given version " 1.1.1.1 <http://1.1.1.1>" by default since CVS thinks it is the first version. It is actually the most current version, which includes a variation of the patch code submitted by James Beckett making the module compatible with Apache 2.2.x. The version that is currently on the CVS tree (revision 1.1.1.1 <http://1.1.1.1>) would actually be revision 1.4 (I think) of the previous numbering system. I hope to have a new revision checked into the CVS tree within a few days. > > Things to look forward to regarding mod_httpbl and the SourceForge project: > - code feature: InterProcessCommunication - a feature that reduce DNS lookups, speed up average overall page response times, and reduce resources used by the module > - project feature: A landing page for the SourceForge project walking you through the newest features and making the module a little easier to install and configure. > - code feature: An Apache 1.3 compatible version of the module > - A few more features > - Many fewer bugs (don't forget to let us know if you find any!) > - Instructions to help future developers get up to speed quickly on helping with the SourceForge project > > > Dave |
