+1 for beta

Certainly ready for release as a beta, and looks as close to GA as needed to me.

[.Note this would be 0.9.6 GA, no promises of binary ABI compatibility from release
to release until we decided to bump it to 1.0.0.]

7 days have passed, and although my first inclination is to declare the vote closed with
2 +1's and begin the dissolution of this effort, I'll leave the vote open three more days
before ending evaluation of this package and taking it to its logical conclusion.

perhaps something for the FAQ:
Q: Why does does the build-in ftp client of Firefox not work with some
configurations?
A: Due to stupid command sequences the Firefox internal ftp client fails
if you have subfolders in the ftproot. This seems a known bug (we found
others reporting same issue too at various places). As workaround either
use a separate ftp client like FileZilla, or use the Firefox Plugin FireFTP.

GÃ¼n.

Exactly like Jeff:

+1 for beta
+ 0.5 for GA (I don't know enough about it to be more sure)

This time I tested on Windows (XP with VS .NET 2003 against httpd 2.2.14
out of tree).

Note concerning the Windows build files: I did a "neu erstellen", should
be something like clean&build. As a result for mod_ftp I did not get
.pdb files. They were only produced for mod_ftp_example.

Digging into it a little deeper reveals, that if you do "neu erstellen",
then it first produces all files for mod_ftp (including pdb), then
removes most of them as part of the clean for mod_ftp_example and then
produces the files for mod_ftp_example.

Regards,

Rainer

As I inquired before, do you encounter this problem cleaning, building and
installing using Makefile-ftp.win? Choosing ALL=1 to the makefile should
trigger this. The problem is again, command line vars are not passing from
the first nmake invocation into its sub-nmake's, something I need to investigate.

No, I used the .dsw and Visual Studio. See my separate post about
mod_fcgid where I reported problems and fix for the Makefile-*.win a few
minutes ago.

I found the ALL switch during that test in the fcgid makefile (sic). For
me it looks like parsing the vars does work, it was only broken fr
INSTDIR, because it was accidentially and unconditionaly overwritten at
the beginning of the Makefile. See patch link in my other post.

Regards,

Rainer

There are sufficient votes to release, so in about 14 hours it will be announced
unless the tide turns between now and then.

+1 for GA; wrowe
+.5 for GA; trawick, rjung
binding +1 for beta; wrowe, trawick, rpluem, fuankg, rjung

Additional positive feedback from Jorge and Mario (linux, win32)

It would be good in the next cycle, with all of the small improvements that Jeff and I
had worked on, to bless this as GA. Unfortunately .5 votes don't sum to 1 :)

Thanks everyone for reviewing!

It is a beta now but could still be GA if nobody finds a regression
and something magic happens and we get votes for GA, right?
