Hi,

I've been granted commit access to mod_perl (Thanks to Torsten), so I 
want to inform you about my intentions with httpd24 branch.

1. Merge changes from trunk to httpd24 branch.
2. Review my patches from http://jkaluza.fedorapeople.org/mod_perl/ and 
commit them to httpd24 branch.
3. Run make source_scan on my machine and commit the results to httpd24 
branch.

Those three steps should allow people to just ./configure and make 
mod_perl with httpd24 sources. They will also make httpd24 branch 
*httpd24 only* and personally I think this is the way to go, because of 
following reasons:

1. Build system (make source_scan) is not good enough to run properly on 
all systems and I'm not going to rewrite it.
2. httpd 2.4 auth API changed in a way where it works very differently 
than the one in 2.2. I will still try to put 2.4 code to proper #ifdefs, 
but it would be really great to just have separate version for 2.4.

When all this is done, I will commit my second patchset which adds 
httpd-2.4 features to mod_perl (mainly new auth API) and fixes lot of 
mod_perl tests.

Please feel free to monitor my work in httpd24 branch and comment it on 
list if you find some problem there. It's my first experience with 
mod_perl and I really don't know everything about it.

Regards,
Jan Kaluza
