I'll second the "config reload" going around...

I would also add a request to be able to define clusters or such of servers....

An example of this would be like:

Cluster
        Name PROD
        BackEnd
                Address 192.168.1.20
                Port 80
        End

        BackEnd
                Address 192.168.1.21
                Port 80
        End
End

Cluster
        Name TEST
        BackEnd
                Address 192.168.1.22
                Port 80
        End

        BackEnd
                Address 192.168.1.23
                Port 80
        End
End

... later in the config file ...

Service
        URL "^/something.*"
        HeadRequire     "Host:.*blah.something.edu.*"
        BackEndCluster PROD
End

Service
        URL "^/bork.*"
        HeadRequire     "Host:.*bork.something.edu.*"
        BackEndCluster PROD
End

Service
        URL "^/.*"
        HeadRequire     "Host:.*foo.edu.*"
        BackEndCluster TEST

        BackEnd
                Address 192.168.1.26
                Port 80
        End
# Would end up sending to 1.22 1.23 and 1.26 (cluster + local defined)
End



etc.. etc...


That would make maintaining backend server pools/clusters VASTLY easier.

Thanks for considering!

Hallo everybody

New year, new version: we declare open the wish-list for 2.7 features.
Please reply to this with your list of enhancements/patches/wishes.

Please feel also free to offer comments (supportive or not, as the case
may be) on items that others may post. The more support for a feature,
the better its chances of making it into 2.7.

Please do NOT post patches in reply - a short description is quite
enough. You can mail me directly if you want to offer patches.
