A zope-specific patch to medusa seems to have got accidentally lost between 2.3.x and 2.4. The patch below allows Zope to handle http requests as if it was a proxy, ie: GET http://servername/x/y/z HTTP/1.0 in addition to the more normal mode as if it was an origin server: GET /x/y/z HTTP/1.0 (there is an rfc for this, but I forget the number :-( (With the Collector down, I hope this is the best place for uncontroversial patches. Is anyone from DC looking out for them?) diff -c -r1.1.1.6 -r1.2 *** http_server.py 10 Sep 2001 14:55:08 -0000 1.1.1.6 --- http_server.py 20 Sep 2001 12:43:53 -0000 1.2 *************** *** 713,719 **** return m return '' !
