Apache 2.0.44 Released

rbowen writes "The Apache Software Foundation is pleased to announce the release of Apache 2.0.44, which addresses a number of security issues. Download it from your favorite mirror." Rich notes that it fixes some important security problems (under Windows) for the Windows version. Also interesting is that now there truly is a split between a development and regular releases, adopting the Linux kernel model, with 2.1 being the dev Apache tree and 2.0 being the release tree.

    I really dislike that version numbering system. I know it makes development version numbering much easier, etc, but damn. I don't know. To me, a 2.5.35 release should be *better* than a 2.4.20 release (speaking in terms of kernel development now), as opposed to being a bunch of ones and zeroes that don't even include a working IDE driver (to be fair, I'm not sure when in the 2.5 series IDE finally stabilized; I just pulled a number out of the air). But whatever. Just picking some nits...

    Yes, I'm in the same situation. Until mod_php is solid, I can't upgrade either. Which is a shame, as I'd love to try it out.
