Sounds like a vote. > When I am correct mod_line_edit has the 'wrong' license model for > being included into Apache by default. Indeed. When my modules have been integrated into the standard distribution in the past, they've moved to the Apache license. It's not a problem when there's a good reason for it. > Just for your infomation: There are more modules having a similar > functionality: Interesting! > > http://mod-replace.sourceforge.net/ That one's genuinely interesting. Looks like an alternative reverse-proxy solution, combining filtering with the mod_proxy cookie rewriting that was missing in 2.0. But it buffers an entire response in memory, which limits its usefulness. > http://yomi.2288.org/forum/ftopic22.html (given by > http://modules.apache.org/search?id=857) My chinese isn't up to finding a download link there! > http://happygiraffe.net/mod_sed.html (VERY old) No thank you:-) > All modules are missing a feature we would like to see: Like in > mod_rewrite's RewriteMap it would be cool to specify a function being > called on the argument while replacing. E.g.: > > RewriteBodyLine 'http://(.*?)/(.*)/(.*)' > 'http://${LOWERCASE:$1}/${MD5:$2}/$3' This kind of feature is on the to-do list, amongst some hacks-in-progress that have yet to reach the mod_line_edit site. This is actually what alarms me somewhat about the prospect of a different but near-identical module in /trunk/: it leaves me either abandoning or redoing some of this stuff. > P.S.: And I vote for a better name like 'mod_filter_pcre' ...
