From the Notes: to get this working w/apache we run typo as usual

RION: or 4174 - so above filters typo thru mongrel to apache?
Yes. This is approximately equivalent to how Java web applications
are usually set up, where Apache talks to the user, proxying
connections back and forth with a separate application server.
So, my Typo ? is this:
Is there another way that you are aware of that would run ruby apps
akin to
perl ones? Meaning using mod_ruby like mod_perl instead of mod_fcgi?
mod_ruby is dead and has lots of issues. If you don't want to deal
with Mongrel as an app server, you could try Passenger (<http://wwwmodrails.com
>), which provides an Apache module that does away with the need for
a separate application server. It's quite new (only released a few
weeks ago), but has been getting a lot of good press thus far, and is
trivial to set up.
