It has long frustrated me that there was no mod_perl module documentation, in the style of the standard Apache module documentation. I don't mean to bash the docs that are there - clearly, they are of exceptional quality. But I wanted something like the standard module docs.
So, rather than complaining, which would seem to be, at best, in poor taste, given the quantity of stuff that folks like Stas have already written, I've started on a mod_perl module doc, based on the Apache 2.0 module documentation XML template. You can see the first cut at http://www.apacheadmin.com/mod_perl.html I know, it is gravely lacking, and needs help. And I intend to do something about that. But I have a few questions before I burn a lot of time on that. Where, if anywhere, should such a document go? Yeah, it can stay where it is, but I would not think that anyone would think to look there. Has someone already done this, and I'm just missing it? I know that there is similar information at http://www.apacheref.com/ref/mod_perl.html but I was hesitant to steal that wholesale. Besides, everyone should buy Ralf's book, and I don't want to dilute that in any way. ;-) Is there currently, or are there any plans for, a mod_perl documentation cvs repository, where something like this could live? Anyways, tell me what you think. I have the original XML, which is vastly more useful than the HTML output, and would be glad to give that to anyone that wants it. -- CooperMcGregor, Inc.
