# $Id$
Version 1.1-beta2 ()
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Added ability to use HTTP Authentication to the blog. Can be
triggered by submitting HTTP Auth credentials [only supported when
the server runs with mod_php, not as CGI]. Authentication can be
forced URLs with the "?http_auth=true" parameter, which
will then send a "401 Unauthorized" header.
If your server does not support mod_php, you can submit REQUEST
variables: ?http_auth_user=XXX&http_auth_pw=YYY.
Note that specifying username and password in the URI will lead
to password disclosure in HTTP logfiles.
This feature is most importantly meant for RSS-feeds, to make
RSS readers able to submit login credentials. (garvinhicking)
