ANNOUNCEMENT: new version of AWS (v0.6)

ANNOUNCEMENT: new version of AWS (v0.6)

[Pascal Obry]

Dmitriy Anisimkov and I are happy to announce the availability of the AWS
0.6 release.

AWS stand for Ada Web Server. It is not a real Web Server like Apache. It is
an HTTP component to embedded in any application. AWS is fully developed in
Ada with GNAT.

This new version has a lot of changes:

  - has always many bugs have been fixed
  - support for SSL (based on the OpenSSL library)
  - improve a bit the documentation (not yet really good...)

With this new version you'll need latest version of the Socket binding
(version 0.1.9 from ENST).

You can download AWS and the Sockets binding for Win32 directly from:
http://perso.wanadoo.fr/pascal.obry/contrib.html

The OpenSSL libraries distributed are for Windows GNAT 3.13. GNAT 3.12 users
must build the libraries from sources or obtain Win32 binaries from 
http://vagul.tripod.com/libssl.zip.

Under UNIX you'll have to build the libraries from sources, it is quite easy 
to do so.

See documentation for build information.
