2) Add a major Protocol Module.  I would like to add a major protocol
module, besides http, into the mainline distribution.  I believe adding
a FTP Server Module would be the best one to start with.  Many of the
paradigms are the same, but it is different enough to help with Goal #1,
eliminating the dependence on http.
 

I am interested by a mod_smtp module, just to be able to have 
http(synchronous) and smtp(asynchronous) possible web service support. 
it could be easy then to code common module for both protocol and doing 
web services.

4) Configuration.  I would like to look at enabling different
configuration systems.  A major change would be to allow more runtime
configuration changes.  Others have mentioned using XML -- Im not sold
on it, and I don't think XML should be an exclusive method, but perhaps
an alternative file format.
 

XML as conf file would be great, coz then, it's really easy to interface 
the server (gui or others).
