How do others feel? Chris, I'm really confused. Are you asking to branch httpd trunk into a 2.4 branch (bad, we aren't there) or a 2.3 branch (overkill IMHO, if we don't have cycles to get to 2.4/3.0 with what's in trunk, we certainly don't have cycles to make the determinations of what is in 2.4 vs 3.0). Or asking for an fcgid brach? You can do whatever you like in the sandbox including preparing a 2.2 or 2.0 flavor from the initial import. (To then release it requires a vote of the PMC, of course). Or what, exactly ;-?
mod_fcgid support
Hi -- Jeff Trawick wrote: Many people use mod_fcgid on Apache 2.0/2.2. The message should be that mod_fcgid development has moved to the ASF, and existing users are not being left behind in the transition. So a branch for mod_fcgid 2.x is maintained for httpd 2.0/2.2 users just as our own stable branches are maintained (FAR beyond emergencies, at least for 2.2.x). This isn't necessarily in opposition to what you said, but some might read it as something like "Apache took over and they won't distribute fixes that work with my existing configurations except in extreme circumstances." I think that's something we want to avoid. (Sorry for the slow response; I'd like to say I've been giving this deep thought but actually I've just been distracted with other work for a bit.) It's also worth assuming, I think, that mod_fcgid isn't going to be back-ported and included in the 2.2.x distribution anytime soon. Given that, I suppose we should look at continuing a 2.x branch for mod_fcgid (with improved autoconf magic, obviously), at least until a httpd 2.4.x is released with mod_fcgid in it. It's slightly inconvenient but I'll willing to start digging into the autoconf stuff and generally trying to get a branch going before we add it into httpd trunk. How do others feel?

You should ask this question on the user mailing list for Tomcat or httpd, and on the developer list. However, the following pages should have all information you need for doing this: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy_balancer.html ciao... -- Lars Eilebrecht l...@eilebrecht.net
