Apache-Apr description ?
I would like to find a description of the Apache-apr project, and could not
locate any. Can some kind person help by providing a pointer, or a
document, or a pointer to where the discussion on this is archived.
I tried all locations I could think of, without success.
Thanks for all who can help.

This is a confusion. The 'apache-apr project' is devoted to
constructing a portable runtime library (the 'pr' in 'apr')
that can be used in more things than just the Apache Web server
(the 'portable' in 'portable runtime').
It happens that the apache-apr directory tree has also been
used as the working area for the 'hybrid server' project, which
is what Manoj described.
>From the recent voting, it seems clear that the hybrid server
project will be moving out of the apache-apr tree and into its
own, leaving apache-apr containing *only* the APR project.

Hmmm, I don't actually know of a description archived on the net about
this code. What kind of info are you looking for?
Basically, it is an extension of the Apache 1.3 design, to have
multiple processes, each with multiple threads serving requests. Right
now, it is based on pthreads, meaning Unix-only, but eventually we'll
base it on a portability layer so it can run on other platforms.
