       fix    Backport SC_M_JK_STORED from JK2 for passing arbitrary methods 
              instead failing the request. (mturk)                           
       fix    Added missing SEARCH and ACL http methods. (mturk)             
       update Add worker secret attribute to the documentation (pero)        
       update Add a stopped flag to worker configuration. Set flag True and  
              complete traffic to worker is stopped. Also update the Ant     
              JkStatusUpdateTask at Tomcat 5.5.10 release. Only usefull in a 
              replicated session cluster.(pero)                              
       update Added worker maintain function that will maintain all the      
              workers instead just the current one. This enables to recycle  
              the connections on all workers. (mturk)                        
       update Use shutdown when recycling connections instead hard breaking  
              the socket. (mturk)                                            
       update Add unique directives checking. The directives if unique are   
              now overwritten instead concatenated. (mturk)                  
       update Allow multiple worker.list directives. (mturk)                 
       fix    34577: For IIS log original request instead loging the request

              platforms like FreeBSD. Patch provided by Allan Saddi. (mturk) 
       fix    33843: Fix obtaining LDFLAGS that were used for building       
              Apache HTTPD. Patch provided by Beat Kneubuehl. (mturk)

       update Set default shared memory to 64K instead 1M. (mturk)           
       fix    Do not mark the worker in error state if headers are larger    
              then AJP13 limit. (mturk)                                      
       update On Series you should use the latest PTF for Apache 2.0 (which  
              is now 2.0.52) and ad minima SI17402/SI17061 or cumulative     
              including them. (hgomez)

       fix    33248: Fix builds where apxs defines multiple directories for  
              APR includes. (mturk)                                          
       fix    32696: Return 404 instead 403 when WEB-INF is requested to     
              comply with Servlet spec. (mturk)                              
       update Added ANT task for managing jkstatus. (pero)

              sending any request to Tomcat. (mturk)                         
       update Added JkMountFile for Apache web servers. This file can        
              contain uri mappings in the form (/url=worker), and is checked 
              for updates at regular 60 second interval. (mturk)             
       update Added status worker for managing worker runtime data using web 
              page. (mturk)                                                  
       update Added load balancer method directive that is used for setting  
              the algorithm used for balancing workers. Method can be either 
              Request (default) or Traffic. (mturk)                          
       update Added shared memory to allow dynamic configuration. Shared     
              memory is needed only for unix platform and web servers having 
              multiple child processes. For Apache web server two new        
              directives has been added (JkShmFile and JkShmSize). (mturk)   
       update Added textupdate mode to status worker to handle remote        
              updates from ant tasks.(pero)

       update Allow anyone to debug and diagnose stack dumps using windbg or 
              any other debugging tool, and (if they add the .pdb files to   
              their installation) to make sense of dr watson logs. Patch     
              provided by William A. Rowe (wrowe)                            
       fix    Fix in_addr_t usage by using the real struct ignoring typedef. 
              Patch provided by William A. Rowe (wrowe)                      
       fix    Fix url rewriting by restoring the in place uri from which the 
              jsessionid was removed. (mturk)

              to the load balancer worker. (mturk)                           
       fix    Fix sending error pages for IIS to client by adding            
              Content-Type header using correct api function call. (mturk)   
       fix    32696: Prevent IIS from crushing when web-inf url was          
              requested. (mturk)                                             
       update Use default cachesize for servers that support discovering the 
              number of threads per child process. (mturk).                  
       fix    Fix Apache content-length header parsing using case            
              insensitive compare. (billbarker)

       fix    Use infinite socket timeout if socket_timeout is set to zero   
              or less then zero. (mturk)                                     
       update Change balanced_workers to balance_workers but keep backward   
              compatibility preserving the old directive. (mturk).           
       fix    Fix ajp initialization for workers with cache_size set to      
              zero. (mturk)

   Changes from the released JK 1.2.6                                        
     Native                                                                  
       update Added new property named recover_time that can be used to      
              change the default 60 second recover time. (mturk)             
       update Added custom retries for worker, so we don't depend on default 
              setting. If set to a number grater then 3, it will sleep for   
              100ms on retry greater then 3 and then try again. (mturk)      
       update Added JkWorkerProperty directive that enables omiting          
              workers.properties file. For example: JkWorkerProperty         
              worker.ajp13a.port=8009. (mturk)                               
       fix    Check all JSESSIONID cookies for a valid jvmRoute. If you have 
              multiple Tomcats with overlapping domains, then you can get    
              multiple cookies without a defined order. This will route      
              correctly as long as the different domains don't have any      
              Tomcats in common. (billbarker)                                
       update Added JkUnMount directive for negative mappings that works as  
              opposite to JkMount directives. It is used for blocking of     
              particular URL or content type. (mturk)                        
       update Added wildchar match uri mappings. One can now use JkMount to  
              map /app/*/servlet/* or /app?/*/*.jsp. (mturk)                 
       update Rewrite the logging by adding Trace options. (mturk)           
       update Added socket_timeout property that sets the timeout for the    
              socket itself. (mturk)                                         
       fix    Changed socket_timeout property to recycle_timeout. This       
              better explains what the directive actually does. (mturk)      
       fix    Changed the load balancer algorithm. The idea behind this new  
              scheduler is the following: lbfactor is how much we expect     
              this worker to work, or the worker's work quota. lbstatus is   
              how urgent this worker has to work to fulfill its quota of     
              work. We distribute each worker's work quota to the worker,    
              and then look which of them needs to work most urgently        
              (biggest lbstatus). This worker is then selected for work, and 
              its lbstatus reduced by the total work quota we distributed to 
              all workers. Thus the sum of all lbstatus does not change.(*)  
              If some workers are disabled, the others will still be         
              scheduled correctly. (mturk)                                   
                                                                             
   JK 2                                                                      
     JK2 has been put in maintainer mode and no further development will     
     take place. The reason for shutting down JK2 development was the lack   
     of developers interest. Other reason was lack of users interest in      
     adopting JK2, caused by configuration complexity when compared to JK.
