MIDGARD 1.2.4 "Mad King" RELEASED
Oct 26 1999

OVERVIEW

Midgard 1.2.4 adds support for multiple Midgard databases in a single
Apache server. Support for URL address space management was extended and
better defaults for configuration directives was added. Some access
control bugs were fixed in the Midgard library.

Changes in this release:

- Now supports multiple Midgard databases
- MidgardDatabase can now be used many times
- MidgardUsername and MidgardPassword now only set the defaults
- You can use extra arguments to MidgardDatabase to set
  the username and password
- MidgardEngine now works inside VirtualHosts and even Locations
- MidgardRootfile now defaults to libexec/midgard-root.php3
- Structure of log messages is now clearer.
- Bug fixes in access control. Group membership is now handled better.

The semantics of the Midgard configuration directives have changed a bit
so it is advised that the mod_midgard documentation (INSTALL and
midgard.conf files) are checked before upgrading from an earlier
version. The changes are only minimal and should cause no problems.
