    Online Documentation: Version 1.3 | Version 2.0 | Version 2.2 | Current

    Downloadable documentation in Microsoft Help (CHM) and PDF formats are available from our distribution mirrors.

    The Documentation Project is an effort to maintain and improve the quality of the documentation included with the Apache HTTP Server. Participation is open to anyone with a little time, a little knowledge of HTML, and hopefully a little knowledge about the Apache HTTP Server. No programming knowledge is required, so this is a great way for non-programmers to contribute to the success of Apache, and to have their work read by millions of Apache users.

    This is not a mailing list where users should ask questions on how to configure Apache. The Users List is available for that purpose.

    How to get Involved

    If you just wish to contribute a small fix to the documentation without becoming involved in the documentation project, you can submit it to the bug database.

    There are lots of ways to contribute to the documentation project, including fixing typos and spelling mistakes, translating the documentation into other languages, writing tutorials to help new users, or just expressing your opinion about suggested changes.

    To start contributing, or just to find out what it is all about, you should subscribe to the mailing list by sending an email to docs-subscribe@httpd.apache.org. For details on how to contribute, the best place to start is Ken Coar's Documentation Project Tutorial.

    For information on our use of XML in the documentation, see our Documentation Format and Transformation page.

    Translation Projects

    Information about translating the documentation into other languages is available at the translations page.
