Now the 0.8.x branch becomes a stable branch.  
The new features have been appeared during 0.8 development:

```
* named regular expression captures,
* file AIO in FreeBSD and Linux,
* SSL CRL,
* SCGI and uwsgi modules.

```

Is file AIO in Linux really fully working? Or is it still as described  
in this thread:

## Is there any special configuration that needs to be done?

RPM

Great news.  
Are you planning dynamic compilation of modules like Apache has?

That will allow us to use contributed modules with official linux distro  
packages.

Thanks
