| |
| CURRENT RELEASE NOTES: |
| |
| * Forward binary compatibility is expected of Apache 2.4.x releases, such |
| that no MMN major number changes will occur after 2.4.1. Such changes can |
| only be made in the trunk. |
| |
| * All commits to branches/2.4.x must be reflected in SVN trunk, |
| as well, if they apply. Logical progression is commit to trunk |
| then merge into branches/2.4.x, as applicable. |
| |
| * Current exceptions for RTC for this branch: |
| . mod_lua |
| . documentation |
| . non-Unix build |
| . non-Unix, single-platform code |

| +1 fuankg, gsmith |
| -.8: trawick |
| This commit is essentially deciding that an httpd install on |
| Windows now has printenv/testcgi written in 2 more languages. |
| To the extent that the usefulness is that it shows how to make scripts |
| of these types executable by httpd, I believe that the documentation |
| is the proper place to solve that. To the extent that the usefullness |
| is to show how to implement a CGI in these particular languages, I believe |
| that the httpd distribution and documentation in general is not the |
| place for that. Historically these types of scripts have caused problems |
| for downstream vendorsas well as newbies (and sometimes the intersection |
| of those two groups) who don't understand that these are information leaks |
| once they are enabled, and the subtlety of the way they are disabled ("Apache |
| messed up the first line; let me fix that") contributes to that. |
| fuankg notes: I've just added a big warning to all CGI scripts which should now |
| make absolutely clear that these CGIs are for testing purpose only - so those |
| who enable those scripts with inserting the right shebang should be 100% aware |
| of any risks (this should cover your last point). |
| jim: trawick, does the above address your concerns? |
| trawick: to some extent (somebody reading the script gets an idea) |
| Why isn't the configuration requirement documented instead |
| of described indirectly in a sample? |
| Why are these new samples added to the install without three |
| votes? (I didn't veto it; put your name next to the two |
| existing ones and I'll be satisified that enough people |
| considered this addition as an appropriate solution for a |
| real httpd usability problem.) |
| wrowe: I'd agree with trawick, and suggest that these scripts can begin |
| their life somewhere in the manual/ tree. This really seems like |
| the place where /usr/share/httpd/examples/ would be useful, but |
| there isn't an ordinary directory for that. Since we want none |
| of the scripts to function 'out of the box', what about a new |
| cgi-examples/ dir alongside cgi-bin/? Otherwise manual/cgi/examples |
| might work? |
