   Please see the CHANGES_1.3.42 file in this directory for a full list
   of changes for this version.

   Apache 1.3.42 is the final stable release of the Apache 1.3 family. We
   strongly recommend that users of all earlier versions, including 1.3
   family releases, upgrade to to the current 2.2 version as soon as possible.
   For information about how to upgrade, please see the documentation:
          
	  http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/upgrading.html

   Apache 1.3.42 is available for download from

           http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi

   This service utilizes the network of mirrors listed at:

           http://www.apache.org/mirrors/

   Binary distributions may be available for your specific platform from

           http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/binaries/

   Binaries distributed by the Apache HTTP Server Project are provided as a
   courtesy by individual project contributors. The project makes no
   commitment to release the Apache HTTP Server in binary form for any
   particular platform, nor on any particular schedule.

   IMPORTANT NOTE FOR APACHE USERS: Apache 1.3 was designed for Unix OS
   variants. While the ports to non-Unix platforms (such as Win32, Netware or
   OS2) will function for some applications, Apache 1.3 is not designed for
   these platforms. Apache 2 was designed from the ground up for security,
   stability, or performance issues across all modern operating systems.
   Users of any non-Unix ports are strongly cautioned to move to Apache 2.

   The Apache project no longer distributes non-Unix platform binaries from
   the main download pages for Apache 1.3. If absolutely necessary, a binary
   may be available at http://archive.apache.org/dist/httpd/.
