I am,
I am not interested in performing those duties but could you clarify how many
active PMC members there are currently? It looks like the list at
https://perl.apache.org/about/pmc.html is over 7 years out of date. It’s
unclear how up-to-date the list at
https://projects.apache.org/committee.html?

When the roll call was done a month ago it's basically myself and Steve,
with Steve really being the only one that has much knowledge of the guts
of the project. Up until the last few months gozer (Phillippe Chaisson)
was at least around enough to file reports, but has been MIA a few
months. So
The projects current state is that no new development happening. This
isn't to say that new development shouldn't happen, but it isn't. Apache
and Perl both continue to move forward, and we are pretty lucky that the
design that Stas, Phillipe, Geoff, etc built mod_perl 2 under is
resilient enou
Not that I want to be the guy that says it sounds like we'll be pulling
the mod_perl plug at any time the right scenario arises, but is it
reasonable to have a discussion here on mod_perl alternatives inline
with the various means of using mod_perl from the low level means of
interfacing with t
I think if you want to discuss alternatives, then a new thread would be
the place to do that.
With regards to plug being pulled, I think that it is up to the
community if, when, and how that happens. That's what the point of this
thread is. If there aren't people that are committed enough to t
Happy to continue being a maintainer. Longer response coming soon :)

Sure... I'll start a new thread after I reply here.
I don't know about how apache projects are maintained and the logistics,
but there are two issues here.
Foremost... from your previous response you need a few people to step up
and file your described report indicating no new releases, but tha
I didn't say there are no developers, I said there is no active
development happening. Steve Hay is a developer. Fred Moyer, who replied
to this thread earlier this evening, has also made significant
contributions to the project. I can dive into the C if I have to, to fix
bugs or review code, b

So I'm happy to be another active PMC member still involved. As
someone with a growing family, my time is limited, but not too much to
review and lend a +1 or feedback. I think that may be the case for a
few of the folks on this list. I'd like to see Steve Hay lead the
future
Thanks for the thorough response, Fred.
At some point before mod_perl stops having any development support would
you expect an End Of Life announcement with reasonable advanced notice?
I haven't followed discussion or announcements on other Apache modules
to know how modules normally reach the

I am willing, but I am not sure how much expertise I have to the
project. I can code in C and C++ and Perl ,and used modperl for
decades, but I have never got into the guts of it.

Isnt it interesting to know how many, happy, users modperl has?

Hello,
I am interested in volunteering (performing duties of a PMC member) some
of my time/knowledge to keep this project up and running.

Yes, count me in. Out of curiosity I tried to search for a mod_perl alternative
for our applications, but have not found anything which could replace it. It
might be old
I am also still around and keeping an eye on things, maybe from afar a little,
but still here and invested.
For myself, I find that one of the challenges in filing board reports is having
to effectively report more or less nothing of value, on a schedule that’s just
long and infrequent enough t

1) Using an MPM other than prefork
2) Websockets

Hi.
I am a long-term (30+) user of Apache/mod_perl (and perl), but at the application level,
not at the committer or PMC level.
May I therefor respectfully contribute an "outsider's" point of view ?
I believe that mod_perl (like perl itself) suffers from the fact that it is just "too
good", i
Jim, mod_perl, while a module, is it's own Top Level Project at the
Apache Software Foundation. So the Project Management Committee (PMC)
of the mod_perl project determines how things go. For other modules that
aren't their own project, they fall under the Apache HTTPD PMC's domain.
