I'd like to see the APR::* into a separate package on

be used on different environments and different servers.
For example I want to use apreq with ActiveState's PerlEx
on IIS without the need to install Apache and mod_perl.
You bring up a good point. However, I think the masses
are better off by moving apreq into httpd. Supporting a
proprietary piece of software over enhancing an open
source one that is more frequently used doesn't seem to
make sense to me.
Assuming the APR::* modules currently in mod_perl can be
packaged in a separate distribution, one way to accommodate
both viewpoints is to include the sources for the libapreq2
library in both httpd (used for the Apache mod_apreq2) and
also in a separate Perl distribution (used for APR::Request
and friends).
