[crickets]

We are two months on since discussing this first.  It seems quite 
worrying that the async filters stuff was introduced with apparently 
nasty bugs and yet is already bitrotting on trunk with not enough people 
to review and fix it.  Can we move the code to a branch until it is 
ready?

Regards, Joe

Sorry for not being able to work on this so far, just proposed a new
patch in the original thread.

This probably wouldn't be easy, there are some further changes (on
trunk) that depend on the async filters, like
ap_proxy_transfer_between_connections() shared by several proxy
modules now, plus mpm_event obviously.
But if we can't make async filters work with reasonable changes, sure
let's move it out of trunk.

Yann.

First time I've seen this thread - can you be more specific, what nasty bugs are you referring to?

I see http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1874775 refers to "The async filter bug”, but there is no PR, or any indication of what the bug is?

Regards,
Graham

Maybe better, yes. So +1.
