I don't think this > means that the Apache2::Request modules should be abandoned. I don't think they should be, or will be, abandoned either. But the fact is that they were developed when we still had apreq_request_t and apreq_jar_t structs on the C side, so some of the apis no longer make much sense now. But if you can avoid the warts, and apparently you can, I think they're fine to use, and we shouldn't have any problem supporting them here. It's not like they're terribly big or complex to maintain. Besides, Apache2::Cookie is a nice application of APR::Request::Cookie- they aren't functionally equivalent modules (one does CGI::Cookie-compatible decoding, the other doesn't). -- Joe Schaefer
