Comment:
minor wordsmithing

  
  The "official" [[http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/new_features_2_4.html|list of reasons to upgrade]] is long but admittedly quite boring.  The key takeaways for 2.4 are
  
-  * all sorts configuration improvements
+  * all sorts of configuration improvements
   * Event MPM as the commonly used processing model on Unix, with drastically reduced thread requirements, even compared with the experimental Event MPM with 2.2
   * numerous improvements in support of lean web server configurations which communicate with web applications running out of process
-  * new SSL features such as support for Elliptic Curve keys, OCSP for client certificates, OCSP Stapling for server certificates
+  * new SSL features such as support for Elliptic Curve keys, OCSP for validating client certificate status, and OCSP Stapling to allow clients to validate server certificate status
  
  You need this stuff!

  As time goes on, more and more OS distributions are including httpd 2.4.  Even when they don't, even versions from several years ago may include a version of OpenSSL new enough to support modern protocols (as well as httpd 2.4).
