Hello there,
Greetings.
When will be the bug 2206 "drops Proxy-Authenticate header" included into
the 3.0-HEAD project?
Okay two things here;
Firstly, 3.0 and 3-HEAD are two separate sets of code.
There is a 3.0, already released and in STABLE cycles.
3-HEAD will soon become a separate 3.1 release.
Secondly, the 2206 was caused by a mistake fixing a less-important bug.
We have temporarily re-broken the minor bug to fix 3.0.STABLE.
That has already been done, and daily snapshots of 3.0 already contain
that fix. STABLE3 is due out end of next weekend with all that inside.
I would have released it by now with the fix, but our VCS change muddled
the maintenance job down slightly during the changeover. We are just
doing the countdown to see if any last-minute bugs occur or can be fixed.
I don't understand the schedule yet when some bugs are found and fixed.
We don't have a schedule of when we are going to find or fix bugs. They
are found by people when they are found. They are fixed as soon as
anybody can identify both the problem and a good fix for that problem.
Usually, in the development version first then ported back through the
current stables.
This time we were lucky enough to find a quick-fix that can keep 3.0
stable and working before having to find the much more difficult
permanent fix.
Right now Christos is working on that fix for 3-HEAD (3.1) that will fix
both 2206 and the other bug. We developers have decided that since
3-HEAD is going to be development for some months yet before its ready
for production use we can spare the time for better-quality patch there.
When the permanent fix is created we'll be deciding whether its simple
enough to port back to 3.0 as well.
Hope this helps.
