W3C puts another piece of Jigsaw in place
Posted on 4 Dec 2003 at 12:20
The Web standards W3C has updated Jigsaw, its reference Web server platform. New to version 2.2.3 is improved SSL (secure socket layer) support, new tools for manipulating JPG images and a number of bug fixes and optimisations.
Specifically, there has been more work on WebDAV (Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning), which is a set of extensions to HTTP. Its aim is to allow the collaborative editing and managing of files on remote Web servers.
The Java-based Jigsaw is open source software that is complementary to Amaya, the W3C's reference browser and standards-compliance testing tool, which was updated to version 8.2 last month. The new version saw changes to the display of CSS rules and backup handling, among other fixes.
Both Jigsaw and Amaya are available for free download from the W3C.
