Can someone point me to a URL that describes the purpose of the Apache2 namespace?

I don't believe one exists (yet) ... possibly a good idea for the
perl.apache.org site?

The general idea as I've got it is:

1.  Apache::*
        Module works under mp1
        Possibly works under mp2

        Example: Apache::DBI v0.98 (both)

        Example: Apache::Peek (mp1)

        Note: I'm working on porting this one as we speak
        to work under both.

2.  Apache2::*
        Module works under mp2 only
        Example: Apache2::AuthNTLM

The decision is basically left up to the individual maintainers at the moment. The benefit of 1 is that you have 1 code base. The benefit of 2 is that you remove the if/else logic and clearly mark the module as mp2 only.
