Whither new enhancements?
I have some enhancements to mod_dir, triggered by an article in the
c.i.w.s.u newsgroup concerning configurable field widths for generated
indices. I've added the IndexNameWidth and IndexDescWidth directives to
allow the setting of explicit widths for those field.
The question I have is: with 1.2 in feature-freeze mode, and (from the
sounds of it) a certain disinclination to have another release (1.3)
before 2.0, what should I do with these enhancements? (Be nice, now!)

So what do we call you for short ? "Rodent" or "big rat" ?

I didn't notice any replies, so I'd suggest you drop them into
the patch dir.

I already made a patch that implements this:
http://www.apache.org/dist/contrib/patches/1.2/variable-dir.patch
Though I see yours adds directives (mine were compile-time #defines).
If you upload your patch to ftp://ftp.apache.org/incoming/apache I'll replace
the one I had there with yours.
