Here's my plan: - After the freeze I'll commit apache21 port (repocopied ~10 monthes ago) to make some test on modules building, etc. - Makefile.modules.3rd will be renamed to bsd.apache.mk - all modules will be renamed in pkg-src way. i.e. ap-<module_name> for 1.3 modules ap2-<module_name> for 2.0.x etc... - Introduce support for 2.X > 2.0.x in bsd.apache.mk As mat said, apache2 will be repocopied to apache20 when bsd.apache.mk appears. Threaded MPM support will be discountinued for 4.x with apache>2.1, since libc_r sucks ;). I'd be happy if you can provide us a short list of incompatibilities between apache2 and apache 2.1/2.2, so I can integrate these changes in my plan quickly. clem
