been there, done that. I have a patch on my harddisk that changes the 
sitemap and module index, removes the authn* and authz* modules and renames 
the obs_* module document files back to the old names. It fixes also the 
references to the new modules in other documents (hope I've got all of 
them)

Because it's a lot of file trouble in CVS I just want to get an "ok, 
commit" or a "waah! don't do it".

thanks, nd

I hope I didn't force that anyway, although... hmm ;-)

Ok.  Now it appears this is exactly what we are doing.  Andre, do you want
to take charge of reverting the auths docs changes in the 2.0 tag (and
removing the "obsolete" modules in HEAD)?

We'll also need to update the cvs checkout on httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/
to get the 2.0 tag rather than HEAD.  I guess I probably have the rights
to do that.

*sigh*. And I thought, I've got it now ;-) (2.0 = keep old, 2.1 introduce 
new)

ok, waiting for now.

The main point for me is/was to have a consistent documentation for the 
2.0.44+ release(s). Only "back-tagging" in the docs is not the best 
variant. Therefore it should be decided sometime...

Exactly what is going to happen with auth is an open issue.  The aim is to
get most of the functionality of the new auth system, while retaining
compatibility with old config files.  But we don't know exactly how that
will happen.

If this suceeds, then the best thing to do will probably be to revert back
to the 2.0.43 auth docs, and then build on the new features from there.
If you want to do that now, I won't object.  But since we don't know
