There are two issues with Apache::Template and mod_perl 2.0:Apache::Template doesn't work with Apache 2.0 -- it relies too heavily on Apache 1.3's configuration API.
1. Custom directives implementation has been changed. Currently it's much easier to implement custom directives, since this is done in pure perl (no compilation required). For more info see:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/config/custom.html
This issue can be resolved now. But read on.
2. Apache::src which is used to extract various information about mod_perl has not been ported. It seems that we will probably have a much simpler WriteMakefile section, with all the mod_perl's internal things automatically provided behind the scenes, without a need for Apache::src. But this issue has not been resolved yet. Later on we might provide a back compatibility version of Apache::src, but if we deliver what I think we will, you won't wont it ;)
Moreover we don't install the mod_perl 2.0 header files yet.
I've posted patches for both things, but awaiting a followup from Doug. Since it requires quite a few changes.
In summary Apache::Template cannot be ported yet to 2.0. I'll announce on the modperl list when 3rd party modules which include xs code can be ported.
I'm the first one wanting to have the system working, because I've a new Apache::Peek implemented but can't release it without support from mod_perl.
Therefore stay tuned and subscribe to the modperl dev list if you want to be the first to know what's going on the sacred land. ;)
