Release Apache module

[Kim Goldov <kg...@gmail.com>]

I've written a mod_perl application, "mod_auth_any", that allows users to be
authenticated by any authentication mechanism or provider. It currently
supports Shibboleth, OpenID (Google), LDAP, and basic auth. Are there
published guidelines on how to package modules that are based on mod_perl?
The modules.apache.org site lists over 500 modules. Are any of these written
in mod_perl?

I'd go with Apache2::AuthAny then.

Thanks Perrin. Would it be appropriate to name and package our application
as "Apache::AuthAny" or "Apache2::AuthAny". I have not tested under Apache
1.3, and have no intent to do so.

Hi Kim,

Yes, they are released on CPAN.

No, that directory is for C modules.  The mod_perl ones are all on CPAN.
