Re: [ RFC ] New Module Apache::SessionManager

Check out Apache::Session, available on CPAN and see if your code
could be moulded to fit it's way of thinking.  If they are too
much different, then you might want to consider contacting the
module list to see if what you have is a good name (it probably
is) before going all out with distribution (and consider CPAN).

For more information,

I believe Greg is familiar with Apache::Session. There have been 
discussions about this before. A session manager manages the workflow 
around sessions. A session stores information. They are two different things.

In addition, I believe the name session manager has come up on this list 
before with regards to this.

Later,
    Gunther
