A Great Day for UNIX Webmasters



It is still unofficial, and nobody announced anything about it,
but...

Apache 1.3.0 and PHP3 are available!

If you will look at http://www.apache.org/dist/  you will find (in
addition to the 1.2.6 and 1.3b7):

 [   ]  apache_1.3.0.tar.Z     05-Jun-1998 05:05   1.8M
 [   ]  apache_1.3.0.tar.Z.asc 05-Jun-1998 05:05     1k  PGP signature
 [   ]  apache_1.3.0.tar.gz    05-Jun-1998 05:05   1.1M
 [   ]  apache_1.3.0.tar.gz.asc05-Jun-1998 05:05     1k  PGP signature
 [DIR]  apache_1.3.0/          01-Jun-1998 15:27     0k

Well, 18 months, 1500 bug reports (one of me), 500 patches, and
150 total code contributors helped make the release of 1.3.0 a
reality...  Let's see when an official announcement will be sent
to freshmeat and/or slashdot...

An in some sort of magical coincidence, PHP3 is going to be
available in 2-3 hours, after a total rewriting, much development
effort, 4 alphas, 6 betas, and even 5 (!) release candidates.

This week began (June 1) with the official announcement of
availability of the Official RedHat 5.1 (though it was ready for
downloading before). Continued with the final 2.0.34 (after 16
or 17 pre-patches). Now this bunch of announcements, and there
are still 2 days for this week till its end... Which will be the
next software?  Gimp 1.0 ?  Mesa 3.0 ?  Debian 2.0 (after code
freeze, and then deep code freeze, and then very deep code
freeze...)?
