When moving from 2.2 to 2.3 these directives will have to be changed to 'Require all granted', 'Require all denied' or some variation of the authz host-based providers. - Existing third party authorization modules will have to adapt to the new structure. git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk@368027 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68
