I have an alternate suggestion... How about working with the AxKit projec=
t to=20
build the internal engine for AxKit 2.0? While AxKit does use mod_perl fo=
r=20
it's embedded perl interpreter, mostly what we use Perl for is the=20
dynamically compiled stuff (XSP), and also to make things a little easier=
 to=20
override. However the core of AxKit is now a plain old apache module.

It would certainly be very useful to have you on the team, as none of us =
know=20
anything about Apache 2.0, and we certainly would like to make sure that=20
AxKit can be used as a filter.

If that doesn't turn yer crank, I'd be happy to have mod_xml as an XML=20
project, since it certainly makes an interesting prospect to have things =
like=20
the output from PHP to be transformable via XSLT on the fly. However I do=
n't=20
get a vote, so my opinion is merely a voice.
