About
----
Caudium is a modern, fast and extensible WWW server derived from Roxen.
Caudium is by default compatible with Roxen 1.3 although some incompatible
options, mostly introduced to improve the performance, security etc. of the
server, can be turned on.
Caudium features built-in log parsing engine (UltraLog), XSLT parser, native
PHP4 support, multiple execution threads and many more features - see
http://caudium.net/ and http://caudium.org/ for more information.

upgrade process is completed smoothly.

   changes that may impact your installation, such as incompatible 
   differences between versions. This file may also contain directions
   for dealing with any upgrade issues that may not be handled
