Hi,
A recent set of patches sent to me for Apache::SSI left me wondering
about a couple of design issues, so I thought I'd turn to the list.
1) Is it preferred to use POSIX::strftime() for time formatting, or
Date::Format::strftime()? One solution would be to dynamically load one
or the other module according to which one is available, but I'd rather
not do that.
2) One can use if, elif, exec, perl, and probably other directives to
bring Perl's capabilities into SSI. Currently I don't check INCNOEXEC to
make sure that the configuration allows such things (it's not even clear
that this is the correct flag to check anyway). Nor do I even check
INCLUDES in the first place. Do people care about these things? They
seem to me like a bit of a flimsy defense against an uncommon enemy, but
perhaps people are relying on them.
