Re: module ported and doc addition...

Hi!

Just wanted to let everyone know that I have just finished porting the 
Apache-AuthExpire module to work with both modperl1 and 2.  It is a: 
#               Small mod_perl handler to provide Authentication phase 
time outs for
#               sensitive areas, per realm.
There are some issues with konqueror, mozilla and netscape, but should 
be a simple fix if someone is watching the headers....

Possible documentation inclusion...?:  When using a ternary 
conditional in conjunction with a conditional operator, I needed to 
enclose the statement with parentheses to force the ternary 
conditional to be executed first.  For example:

   my ($res, $sent_pw) = $r->get_basic_auth_pw;
   return $res if $res !=  (MP2 ? Apache::OK : 
Apache::Constants::OK);  # return not OK status if not OK

Took me a while to catch that... :P

Is J. J. Horner on this list?  (Are you out there...? :)) )  

If so, can you contact me about getting permissions to upload the 
Apache-AuthExpire mod that I have ported?  (So it can be indexed by PAUSE.)

Also, Stas, is there a way that I can get around having to wait for an 
author to upload a ported module?  I am not adding any functionality 
except making it work with both versions of modperl, and making 
additions that the CPAN testers have requested.  I have a clear window 
for now, and would like to keep on porting mods while I have a little 
extra time...

Thanks!
