My suggestion is to take what you learned in proxy, and establish the
httpd-rollup project (I posted on this earlier, something with "rollup" in
the subject).

Since you guys have already been doing it, then it makes sense to formalize
that into a project. The project would mostly just be some scripts and
things, but it could grab code from "anywhere" to roll together a release.

Hell... we haven't even started talking about bundling some of our Java and
XML tools with the web server. Lots of neat things that could happen there,
too.

I'm +1 on creating httpd-rollup, and -0.5 on putting proxy back in.

[ if (since?) mod_ldap is going out, then we have to deal with the rollup
  anyways, which would totally kill any impetus for putting proxy back in.
  thus, I'm against bringing proxy back into the core. ]

Cheers,

Ok - first question - what do we call the rollup release:

o Option A: apache-2.x.x.tar.gz

  Combines httpd-2.0, apr, apr-util, httpd-proxy and
  httpd-ldap and produces an apache rollup tree.

o Option B: apache-2.x.x.tar.gz, apache-modules-2.x.x.tar.gz

  Combine httpd-2.0, apr, apr-util into apache-2.x.x.tar.gz,
  and combine httpd-proxy, httpd-ldap into apache-modules-2.x.x.tar.gz.

o Option C: apache-2.x.x.tar.gz, apache-proxy-2.x.x.tar.gz,
  apache-ldap-2.x.x.tar.gz

  Combine httpd-2.0, apr, apr-util into apache-2.x.x.tar.gz, 
  and combine httpd-proxy into apache-proxy-2.x.x.tar.gz, and
  combine httpd-ldap into apache-ldap-2.x.x.tar.gz.

o Option D: something else...

Graham
