Ok. I will come back in a few years :) j/k How about moving the proxy/cache parts to use their own core filters/architecture ? I obviously lack experience, but in my limited understanding the proxy/cache code is being restrained because we can't improve core features that may affect the HTTP serving parts. In a proxy/cache situation no one cares about php/python, cgi, or what-so-ever filters. Can't we change the rules for apache (core and modules) operating as a proxy/cache more easily ? I don't know all possible implications of such a move, but it may work. -- Davi Arnaut
