What with the comments about Apache 1.2 and the suggestions of how to deal with the new Linux 2.0 kernel, I think it's beyond fixing. It needs to be tossed and rewritten - although perhaps there are parts that are salvageable.

Or if someone would be willing to give some attention to the docs list for a while to assist in writing something that would be useful to actual admins in the real world.

I am willing to contribute my performance talk material, since I don't really give that presentation anymore.  I have very few cycles, but would be willing to help work on making it suitable for inclusion in the httpd docs.  

Over the years, I have tried to concentrate more on the tuning knobs available to the average admin, rather than dig into the operating system or httpd code.  

Another source may be Colm's talks, but he is still giving those.
