[Bug 771362] [NEW] Nginx 1.0

 

Public bug reported:

Currently nginx07 is on the repo. But even nginx08 is considered legacy
(see http://nginx.org/en/download.html).

The repo could contain 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, and 1.0, but I'm really not
convinced this would be necessary as versions prior have been leading up
to 1.0. Nginx is gaining more momentum, and most people will probably go
with 1.0. There really isn't much of a difference between 0.9 and 1.0.

Nginx doesn't support dynamic modules as it would incur a speed penalty.
The current version of nginx in the repo has no indication of what
modules are compiled in. For example the ssl module is not included by
default, so there is no way of knowing if ssl is built in or not. There
is also no indication if pcre is dynamically or statically linked.
