That would be altogether reasonable, if the currently adopted and still widely supported operating systems shipped 2.4, but it isn't so. While the adoption of 2.2 is all tied into current operating systems, we aren't about to forego security patches to such widely used code. Something to rethink when 2.4 starts to seriously catch up and surpass the 2.2 deployments. The EOL of 2.2 will occur, just as with 2.0, and with 1.3, when you can no longer find a subset of the httpd project members and committers to do any maintenance for the branch. I'm guessing that the inflection point is much closer to 2 years away than 12 months from now.
