AJP in tomcat 5.x

Hello All,

AJP connector documentation for tomcat 5.5
(http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/ajp.html) reads:

	The native connectors supported with this Tomcat release are: 
	- JK 1.2.x with any of the supported servers 
	- mod_proxy on Apache httpd 2.x (included by default in Apache
HTTP Server 2.2), with AJP enabled 

Hence my questions:
- what is a "mod_proxy with AJP enabled"? Too my understanding,
mod_proxy has nothing to do with AJP. Or does it?
- why does it say "JK 1.2.x"? What about JK2? Is it a typo and both can
be used with Tomcat 5.5, or what? And which one (JK 1.2.x or JK2) is
recommended?

Thank you in advance,
Michal.

1) The development branch of httpd (slated to be released as httpd 2.2) 
contains an ajp13 module that works under mod_proxy.  I've heard that it is 
possible to build the v2.2 mod_proxy against httpd 2.0, but it is unlikely 
to be included in an official v2.0 release.

2) It's not a typo.  While it is possible to use mod_jk2 with 5.5, mod_jk2 
is currently unmaintained.  The page is only mentioning the maintained 
native connectors so that people won't expect that mod_jk2 bugs will ever be 
fixed. :)
