hi, guys. i've posted this patch for foreground/supervise support in the 1.3.* tree four times since january fifth (when the thread for support for this in 2.0 started), and i haven't heard word one back from anyone with commit access... i'd really like to see this (very simple) feature backported from 2.0 into the 1.3.* tree for consistency's sake, and i'd be ecstatic if i could get it in under the wire for the 1.3.24 release. can i get some feedback on my patch? is there something i'm missing or doing wrong that would preclude this from being applied?
thanks for all of your time and hard work. --michael patch attached, also available at: http://www.sub-rosa.com/handler/pub/apache-1.3.23-foreground-patch -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] (michael handler) washington, dc
