Current and Future Versions of Apache

The installation instructions in this chapter refer to Apache HTTPD server version 2.0.47, which is the current production version of the software. The Apache Software Foundation uses minor release numbers for updates containing security enhancements or bug fixes. Minor releases do not follow a set release schedule; when enhancements or fixes are added to the code and thoroughly tested, the Apache Software Foundation will releases a new version, with a new minor version number.

It is possible that by the time you purchase this book, the minor version number will have changed, to 2.0.48 or beyond. If that is the case, you should read the list of changes, which is linked from the download area at http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi ...
