Adding mod_xinclude as part of the release has been mentioned
(on this list and not by me) once or twice.  I'm happy to maintain it
and I do svbscribe and even occasionally contribute to the list.
The current incarnation does need a mod or two for the current
development strain.  If there's interest, I'll go make the changes.

The current version can be retrieved from:
    ftp://pageplus.com/pub/hsf/xssi/xssi-1.1.1.tar.gz

(xssi/mod_xinclude extends server side includes to support setting variables
and basic conditionals which may be regular expressions.  see
http://pageplus.com/~hsf/xssi for further details.)

I think this would be a good idea. Assuming that xssi is completely
compatible with the current ssi, and doesn't make it noticibly slower, I
see no reason why not, and could be a valuable addition.

+1 (conditional on seeing the final modified version, of course)
