Very nice. I look forward to installing this; hopefully, it will be 
straightforward.

A couple of questions -- 

1. I was looking at mod_cache (mod_disk_cache and mod_mem_cache) yesterday and 
wondering if they could be used to cache the images. Is mod_geocache 
inspired/based on those modules?

2. Why wed this to Apache? By making it web-server agnostic, you open up the 
audience.
