All of the changes I've made are applicable in srm.conf, access.conf
and .htaccess. You're right, however. I think we want to see some
way of extending the directory index to do special things with a
subset of files; ie: an archive list.

Right. That was the part of intent of my changes. Check out
http://www-ns.rutgers.edu/httpd/demo.html.

If I understand you correctly, its done. The global Directory Index
defines in srm.conf are superseded by those in access.conf and
htindex.

Actually, I was about to try and get this patch from you, if just to
use here at Rutgers. I'd really us like to integrate our patches and
jointly submit them to Rob. Let's do this: send me a copy of your
patch, I'll integrate it into my changes, and send the new patch back
to you. If we agree on the implementation, we'll send it to Rob to
see if we can get it included into the distribution. If not, we'll
reimplement where needed. Sound good?
