I think 2.4.0 GA at AC is destined to be a "dot zero" release (most

Are we anywhere near that level of commitment to trunk?  It would be
rather sad if 2.4.0 was ditched for 2.6.0.  Just look to the recent
perl releases for examples of such instability.

What are opinions about adding some fields to structs for extensions that seem 
like a good idea but have not been written yet. This would then allow to add 
them during the lifetime of 2.4.x with only a minor MMN bump.

Not sure what you mean... we've added additional fields, always at the
end of the struct, during releases with just a minor MMN bump before.

The problem is that ap_logconf is embedded in the middle of server_rec, so appending is not an option there. I thought global_score had similar issues, but I was mistaken. There we can add fields later on.
