To hopefully put this thing to bed, six months later -- I have taken the
mod_websocket patchset started by the long conversation in [1] and
pushed it to a GitHub fork [2].
I've submitted a pull request to the original author, but I'm assuming
he will not suddenly appear out of the blue after three years, so I plan
to actively own and maintain my fork on GitHub. If you're also
interested in WebSockets with Apache, and/or you've submitted a pull
request to the original project and it hasn't gone anywhere, please give
me a buzz.
I still need to familiarize myself with the code base and get it into a
state where I can sustainably maintain it (tests would be good). After
that I'm primarily interested in picking up the conversation left off in
Bug 47485 [3]. Any general advice is welcome!
[Administrative side note: I am no longer employed at National
Instruments, so emails to my prior @ni.com address will bounce. Use
GitHub to talk to me about the module.]
Thanks again to modules-dev for helping and humoring me!
