First milestone was the more or less rewrite of bsd.apache.mk, apache22 port and the apr update. There are some really important parts to honor, for example Apache 2.4 and onwards doesn't require linking the MPM module directly in the httpd binary anymore. APXS lost the MPM_NAME query, so we can't assume a given MPM anymore. But at the moment we need the MPM information in some places to adjust build parameters (for example in bsd.php.mk). Next every port which use the macro "USE_APACHE=22+" should be tested to build against apache24 (~130 ports). So you see, there are some more places to look. -- Regards, olli
