Heya Stas, I like that alot, as you say heaps cleaner. For the time being thou can you see any problems with us using my patch internally? I have run a few more tests and it seems everything still works pretty good. And of course keeping an eye out for Apache::RegistryCooker.. or will it be ported under Apache::PerlRun?
