If this module will come forward from 1.3 (where it was supported) it would have
to land in modules/arch/netware/ --- second, this is kernel level support of SSL
which is entirely different (IMHO) than mod_ssl.
To be fair, mod_tls (winsock) has been around longer. However, mod_tls is a little
too vague to be used this way. So, Brad, would you be willing to remove this module
from the core, given that everyone shares mod_ssl, and that mod_ssl offers a more
comprehensive and supported ssl/tls architecture? If not willing, please describe
for the list what it is and why it aught to remain, and if you are willing to rename
it to mod_winsock_tls to avoid ambiguity?
Now if Brian wants to keep/Ryan wants to remove, then fine, we need a vote. But this
module has been around for a number of 1.3 subrevisions, and cannot be axed by one
individual's opinions. It isn't easy to be accepted as a new module. It must be
equally difficult to be pulled from the core.
