 .
   * New upstream version, release candidate for 1.3.0.
        * The dynamic loading that Debian has done for years is now
          officially supported.
        * Better support for HTTP/1.1-style virtual hosts.
        * A number of bugfixes and internal performance enhancements.
   * The configuration program now adds all features with LoadModule
     directives, and in the order recommended for Debian by Lars Eilebrecht
     of the Apache Group (fixing mystifying stuff like #19169).
   * Install scripts no longer attempt to edit /etc/passwd directly,
     which wasn't reliable anyway (#18588).
   * Added text to make it clearer that "corrected" paths are not
     saved to the config files until the very end (#18187).
   * Standard configuration no longer stores icons in /usr/doc (#18188,
     #15344), but asks before correcting icon directory Alias and cgi-bin
     ScriptAlias (#18187).
   * The apachectl script now uses correct paths (#19616).
   * Uses better regular expression in init.d from Nicholas Lichtmaier.
   * It is now possible to backspace during the selection of Y or N
     within apacheconfig (#18310), which also fixes operation on sparc.
   * Configuration program no longer attempts to reconfigure a
     correctly-configured configuration during an upgrade (#17350, #18768,
     #18187).
   * Binds to port 80 even without an explicit Port directive (#18553).
   * The cron.daily script now correctly parses the obsolete and insecure
     Group number "#-1" in httpd.conf (#16146, #15693).
   * Fixed details of logfile locations in apache manpage (#20438).
   * The init.d script now uses the "graceful restart" reload method.
   * Closes #20569: log files listed multiple times are only aged once.
   * Updated initial site webpage.
   * Added yet more debhelperization, eliminating lintian errors.
   * Updated to Standards-Version 2.4.1.0.
   * Closes #18098 -- there is no demand for a 1.2.6 package, and only
     this 1.3.x has been tested in hamm).
   * Closes #18128 -- the postinst should not offer an inetd option, as the
     Apache Group has made it clear this "does not work propery -- avoid if
     at all possible.".
   * Demotes #20655 to severity fixed (apache no longer needs the non-free
     mysql.h header to compile, mod_so replaces mod_dl, and dpkg-dev
     1.4.0.22 can extract the source package).
