CLI-USERS@ community, this note is to let you know about some major changes coming up here over the next week. Effective on Monday, May 15th, cli-users@ traffic will all move into the general community of users@httpd.apache.org, with this list closing. You can email [EMAIL PROTECTED] to join that list ahead of time.
This is part of a general effort to move mod_aspdotnet into the regular fold of httpd development and user peer-to-peer support. The [EMAIL PROTECTED] list similarly folds into [EMAIL PROTECTED] The mod_aspdotnet moves from cli into the top-level httpd project. Based on participation and oversight from the .NET community on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] community, the httpd project will continue to support the module. If there is an overall lack of participation, the module may be shelved sometime in the future for want of support. It's entirely up to the community to ensure it's long term success. We are doing so to ensure several things, better integration with the httpd development process, better oversight by the httpd project, and to keep the general development community aware of happenings in .NET space to their project. This provides a more open window to you - the cli-users community, to learn about other aspects of Apache httpd by participating in the wider [EMAIL PROTECTED] community process. In closing, a new release will be submitted monday for consideration based on the most recent snapshot (which many already use). Once it's done, this will be branched to a vs2002 specific branch, and the main code upgraded for the new C++ API in Visual Studio 2005. This should permit more users to roll-their-own based on the Visual Studio 2005 express edition, and catches up to Microsoft's current C++.NET programming language (which as some already know, looks little like the original iteration of C++.NET). We hope to see a strong showing in the release vote process, because the release process is the one and only metric of project health; it will determine if mod_aspdotnet continues to survive as an effort of the ASF and the Apache HTTP Project. We look forward to seeing you on [EMAIL PROTECTED] and answering your questions there. As always, general ASP.NET programming questions already have better forums out there, but whenever you find discrepancies between hosting ASP.NET pages under mod_aspdotnet v.s. mod_mono or IIS, users@httpd.apache.org will become the place to ask about them!
