“The Apache Group is pleased to announce the release of the
fourth public alpha release of Apache 2.0.”

“Apache 2.0 offers numerous enhancements, improvements and
performance boosts over the 1.3 codebase. The most visible and
noteworthy addition is the ability to run Apache in a hybrid
thread/process mode on any platform that supports both threads and
processes. This has shown to improve the scalability of the Apache
HTTPD server significantly in our early testing, on some versions
of Unix. This release also greatly improves the performance and
robustness of Apache on the Microsoft Windows Operating Systems.
Lastly we are proud to announce support for BeOS in this version of
the server.”
