I would tend to agree with Jay though: I would consider Apache and Apache2 are two different products. Any trickery with version numbers for modules is a recipe for disaster. Say I have an Apache module called Apache::Foo 1.99 and an Apache::Foo 2.00 for mod_perl 2. What happens when I want to release a new "Apache::Foo 1.99"? Apache::Foo 1.99_01? Sounds too much like "use 5.008_001' to me, i.e. a big mess :) So, you've got to change all 'Apache' to 'Apache2' in your Apache2 modules. Big deal. That's why ctags exist... -- Reporting bugs: http://perl.apache.org/bugs/ Mail list info: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html
