2.4.0 GA This week?

I'm proposing a T&R of 2.4.0 this week with a release sometime next
week... I'll RM.

Mladen,

It is fixed, r1210449 did the trick. Once that extra Win32 pid check was 
removed, the watchdog takes steps, heatbeat beats & heartmonitor 
monitors. I thought I confirmed this back then, sorry if I didn't.

Regards,

Gregg

Is the issue still present and what the issue actually is.
I have watchdog/hearmonitor/heartbeat working on windows
using the current svn 2.4.x branch.

If you can share some light what's broken I can try to fix that.

The protocol allows to exchange heartbeat info between multiple
httpd instances and as such is irrelevant.
Although could be made public so that other app servers can
post their status to heartmonitor allowing to add/remove
group members when they go on/off line (at least that's the idea).

No third party modules is needed.
You need frontend httpd and bunch of backend httpd+php or something
like that.

With what external mechanisms that exist today?  Over what protocol?
In use today by mod_proxy_balancer?  I'll review the docs myself next
week when I come up for air, but what I don't want to do is ship
something a typical user can't directly take advantage of without
third party modules.

And some basic docs have been added in the meantime.

a way of monitoring a cluster of servers and opening another way of 
balancing the load (lb_meathod_byheartbeat).

This is what I see when I look at the bundle.

More to the point, what do they interact with?

What convention or protocol are they implemented with?

Let's start with the basics; what do they add to this MB's large tarball
to benefit Joe User?

Since I have been the most vocal about this 
watchdog/hearmonitor/heartbeats on windows ... I should chime in.
I can tell someone what each do (as far as I have seen). There are, 
minimal docvs on all but watchdog (which is required for a couple) ... 
but ... look at my emails in the past ... am hardly the one to write 
docs :)

+1 for removing

IMHO these modules are not tested well.
Who can test the modules with no docs?

I am +0.5 for removing them from 2.4.0. They can be re-added when 
someone writes the docs. Other opinions?

mod_heartbeat
mod_heartmonitor
mod_lbmethod_heartbeat

These have no documentation.
Is that OK we release GA with no docs modules?

The loadbalancer still crashes on windows. See
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52402
IMHO a blocker for GA.
