-
- This server has the following features:
-
- o Directory index support.
- o Access logging.
- o Group annotation server support.
- o Drop-in Gopher replacement support.
- o Simple and lightweight; easy to compile.
- o Clean; returns files without ever mutating their data.
-
- Changes from 0.3 include the following:
-
- o Added annotation server support. See README.GROUP-ANNOTATIONS.
- o Added access logging capability.
- o Added HTTP/1.0 compatibility (3rd+ args of GET command ignored).

- slash was appended to the directory name.
- o Fixed bug with extraneous null appended to end of file data
- stream.

-
- We recommend that sites currently using version 0.3 of this server

- purely experimental and may be changed substantially in the future.
