Your trying to reignight that old thread .... don the flame proff stuff,
seriously this would be a good mod_perl thing.
Matt are you going to do something on AXKit ?

This would be good "advertising" and hence help when we go to a
{client|boss|manager|person with pointy hair} and say look at mod_perl
site XZY runs it (and hopefully they go "Ah ... your hired !" ;-).

Gunter - sounds like you are talking yourself into a slot here - again
this would be interesting from a PHB perspective i.e put mod_perl into

If any one is interested I could do something on Session Manager - which
I've been looking at rewriting in C - but I have to learn C at the same
