Hi Jim,

It's not the right list to discuss, but:

As a user I would expect configuration info for load-balancing with mod_proxy_balancer on the mod_proxy_balancer page.

The fact, that all configurations for the proxy balancer are done by attributes, and the only full size apache directives concerning mod_proxy_balancer are in fact handled by mod_proxy unfortunately leads to the result, that the doc is only on the mod_proxy page.

The user doesn't yet know, that he wants to use ProxyPass, he only knows he wants to add load balancing and looks at the page of mod_proxy_balancer, because this component is supposed to implement the balancing. At this point the user usually hasn't read the code to find out, that the configs are in fact handled by mod_proxy itself :)

Regards,

Rainer

If you want to use mod_proxy, it is important to know, that most
documentation for mod_proxy_balancer is contained in apaches
documentation page for mod_proxy, not on the page for
mod_proxy_balancer :)

Why? Let's see, I want to use mod_proxy's ProxyPass. I should
look someplace other than mod_proxy docs for that info :)
