[announce] memcached-1.1.12-rc1

[Brad Fitzpatrick]

It's been forever-ago since I last did a memcached release, but I'm a free
man now after selling my company, and hopefully back to being a
worker-bee.

So here's the 1st release candidate of memcached 1.1.12:

 http://www.danga.com/memcached/dist/testing/memcached-1.1.12-rc1.tar.gz

Let me know if there are problems (in particular with Makefile/install
stuff) or daemonization, or libevent, or pid file writing, etc.

Here's the changelog since 1.1.11 in April 2004:

+         From: David Phillips <electrum at gmail.com>
+       Here is a patch to configure.ac and Makefile.am to put the man page in
+       the correct location.  Trying to install the man page from a
+       subdirectory results in the subdirectory being used in the install
+       path (it tries to install to doc/memcached.1).  This is the correct
+       thing to  do:
+
+       - create a Makefile.am in the doc directory that installs the man page
+         with man_MANS
+       - modify Makefile.am in the base directory to reference the doc
+         directory using SUBDIRS
+       - modify the AC_CONFIG_FILES macro in configure.ac to output the
+         Makefile in doc

I guess that isn't so huge, so consider this an invitation to flood me
with patches I haven't applied in the past many months.  (sorry  :/)

I'll do another -rc release if I apply new feature-addition patches.
