OK, let's pursue my idea of a new repository modperl-modules, where we can put essential modules which are maintained by those who already have a commit access, but either too busy to actively commit things (e.g., doug) or simply want the code to be in the public repository (e.g., me).dorian wrote:I don't remember what was the outcome of the patch I've posted a long time ago.

ah, so it's actually a problem with the mod_perl distribution then?
well, maybe not.
try this patch
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=apache-modperl-dev&m=98295430720401&w=2
as you can see from the rest of the thread, doug applied it but it looks as if Apache::Module hasn't had a release since then.
Once we have this repository we can all commit to it, and the respective CPAN module owners can simply upload the new releases. Moreover nowadays CPAN allows to co-own modules, so if one of us is not around the co-owner can release the module. Finally users will be able to access the cvs snapshots of the modules.
What layout should we have? Should we have modules separated by the mod_perl version they build with? Let's take a few modules. We have Apache::Module which works with 1.0, Apache::Scoreboard which we have separate versions for each mod_perl released. And Apache::Peek, which I've ported to work with both mod_perl versions (but can't release before we change 2.0 to support 3rd party xs modules).
So should we go for something like:
modperl-modules/1.0/Apache-Module
modperl-modules/1.0/Apache-Scoreboard
modperl-modules/2.0/Apache-Scoreboard
modperl-modules/any/Apache-Peek
or:
modperl-modules/Apache-Module-1.0
modperl-modules/Apache-Scoreboard-1.0
modperl-modules/Apache-Scoreboard-2.0
modperl-modules/Apache-Peek/
or else (your input comes here):
