What's the status of this?  I'd be willing to help if needed.  We are 
interested in this.

My $.02 worht:

Make an event MPM that is experimental.  That way people can use "tried 
and true" worker, or try the fancy new event one.

I am interested in it too.  I talked to Greg Ames a week ago, and he
doesn't have any updates for the patch.  I planned on mailing this list
about it later this week.

I would like to get the patch(or something based off of it) into CVS
soon.  My basic question for the list is, are we better off modifying
the Worker MPM, or should we create a new 'event' MPM for now?
