Or would you rather me ask a question that doesn't shed light on issues? Kind of like "only behave the way we wish"? Then why have a list? You want approval? Get a dog. I'm here because things are not clear. Yes, it's a list for users. Users are not developers, hence the difference in lists. Hence the need for documentation, to take users into a space for having the need for such lists. Pretty simple, don't you think? Most areas where you offer a service, you minimize things so that they are not misleading, as they apparently are here. See the example above.

I have little patience for you. I'm sure the above information is completely OK by you, but that would only shed light on the real issue of most open source software, which is accompanied by questionable technically written documentation. So yes, the documentation is horribly written. If you can find 2.2 documentation that sheds light on this, which I've spent the better part of 2 days reading, then please point it out. Documentation is about understanding, which it has not provided. So yes, it goes into the bug reporting system as a bug, as it's not performing as expected, as defined by the docs. If it found that the performance is as expected by the developers, yet the documentation doesn't provide insight, then the documentation needs to be fixed. That, is as much a part of apache as the server itself.

And be nice.

I've been around this mailing list for a long time. I'd guess 12 years, at the very least. It's not often that we get postings from anybody as utterly rude and unprofessional as this. Had this been a commercial technical support encounter, this would be the point at which I would have hung up.

There is never any excuse to be this rude, particularly in a public forum, where it is archived forever.

You posted a question, posted a solution that had nothing whatever to do with your question, and then posted this diatribe, which had nothing to do with either one, and then have the audacity to claim that we do what we do in order to get your approval.

One hopes that at some point you have the grace to look back on this exchange and be embarrassed at your behavior.
