mod_jk2

Was there a reason mod_jk2 was replaced with mod_jk? I found mod_jk2 
much easier to use and it's a pity it's gone. Is it just looking for a 
maintainer?

Were there advantages of mod_jk2 over mod_jk?

Too complex, uses APR that behaves badly with Apache1.3,
and lot more. Browse the mail archive for further details.

No it is not, but that's kind of personal opinion in any case.

No! Please, I'm tired of JK/JK2 discussions :).
It's a dead code. There are two active connectors projects
already mod_jk and mod_proxy for Apache 2.2

When AJP14 protocol gets accepted we'll probably have a third one,
so that's enough, thought.

None.

If you *really* like JK2 code, it's a BSD license, so you can
do with it what ever you wish, just don't call it Apache or Jakarta.
