Oh I just mean that the tarballs be generally available, ie that apr
actually have released. In the past, there have been httpd votes which
incorporated an unreleased apr, though it was clear that it would be
released by the time httpd was. Now there are some more httpd folk who
are not apr folk, and it can be confusing.

I brought it up on list 3 times, including specifically asking what
people meant by the proposal and got nothing, so now it's gone. 

I couldn't add those patches (it's not even clear what patches were
being talked about), as it's not clear that that's what the people voted
on. I guess I could have replaced it with a different proposal and reset
the vote count to zero.
