That's right.... and one of them is...
Will Apache accept ZLIB into the Apache source tree in either
source or binary library format for all platforms.
Check one box only...

Yes, there is... Ian's mod_gz.

Horseshit. Read the thread.

That's right... it's OUR decision.
If we have decided to wait until the Server doesn't have as many
problems as it does right now before we get entangled in this
2.0 mess along with you... and that decision prevents a wildly
successful and useful codebase from becoming part of the
Apache distribution even at some future date... then so be it
( and you can kiss my ass ).
Go ahead and add Ian's weekend-warrior filtering demo RIGHT NOW
and start hacking on it to make it real. Good luck to you.
That's just what Apache needs right now... another half-baked
half-finished module sitting in the source tree.
