=== Updated September 23, 2001 ===
* Added WebKeepRefresh directive to assist with content that is not directly requested by a browser, such as PHP includes. 

=== Updated September 4, 2001 ===
* Builds using Apache 1.3 APACI structure 
* Updated to Apache 1.3 API 
* Supports both static configurations and loadable modules 
* Enhanced documentation for new options and common configurations

* New WebKeepDirectoryIndex directive to flexibly complement Apache DirectoryIndex 
* Built and tested on several version of Red Hat Linux and FreeBSD. 

=== Potential Enhancements ===
The following enhancements are being considered for future versions. If you have a preference or if you have an idea that is not on the list, please contact the curator.
* Add support for mass virtual hosting, analogous to mod_vhost_alias functionality. 
* Add binary loadable modules to the depot for ease of installation. 
* Port to other platforms. Most prominent are probably Solaris and Windows. This depends on platform availability and updates to compilers for P4API builds. Please contact the curator. 
* Add WebKeepScriptAlias to eliminate some redundant mappings for /cgi-bin and the like. 
* Reduce the number of errors logged to the Apache logs. 
* Add WebDAV support for direct submission to the depot. 
* Add directory listing capability. 
* Port as an ISAPI filter for IIS. 
* Increased integration with application servers, including the major J2EE servers and Zope. 
* Add availability of P4 environment variables to execution contexts. 
* Support Apache 2.0.
