Hello All, The Apache team is getting close to releasing a new version and need a few people to test the new Windows installer. The installer has been tested with WinNT and Win2k - however, it could use testing on Win 95/98. This should be a very simple task compared to the testing we normally do! (x-ing fingers :) The latest rc is available at http://www.apache.org/~wrowe/apache_1.3.17-win32-rc5.msi The pertinant list is new-httpd@apache.org (sub at new-httpd-subscribe@apache.org) Note: Please send any replies on this thread directly to me. Now that I have your attention, we should probably keep this off of the QA list. :) Thanks! Zak Here is the original message from the Apache list: William A.
