The session cache interface in mod_ssl on the trunk is now mostly SSL-

There is still some tight coupling between the session cache and the
ssl_mutex interface, but that's next on my hit list.
Is there any interest in seeing this extracted from mod_ssl and made
available for general use? It could probably e.g. be used by
mod_auth_digest for the MD5-sess code, and I can think of some
third-party modules which could probably use it too (mod_gnutls).
My vague plan would be to finish de-SSL-ifying the code, then moving it
to modules/cache and calling it mod_sesscache or mod_socache ("small
object") or something along those lines.
"mod_small_cache"?

It sounds like that *Should* be mod_cache_small (which will muck up the
cache namespace). I'd rather see one longish name like Joe suggested
than leave "cache" on its own
+1 to the idea in general. If the cache isn't memory-only based, would
be nice to see this done in apr-dbd for easy porting of backend storage
systems...
