This gets my vote. I don't see why it's necessary for the ASF to be in
the business of distributing binaries; letting other people assume the
technical and legal responsibilites for doing that seems reasonable.
The documentation work necessary would be greater if mod_ssl is split
into a separate package, and having mod_ssl in the tree is one of the
compelling features of 2.x anyway.
