I don't know a lick of C so bear with me if this is a dumb question.  I was 
reading through the docs on plugins and I'm getting the feeling this plugin is 
for ATS 2x as opposed to 3x (which I downloaded)?

balancer.cc:44:22: error: RemapAPI.h: No such file or directory

I feel like version 3 plugins use ts/remap.h instead?

Again sorry if this is a dumb question.

Yeah, it's a bit worse than that :). The way this plugin worked at Yahoo was in 
combination with an out-of-bandwidth health checker and balancer. 
So, as it is, it's probably fairly useful. I know the Taobao team has changes 
to make active health checks in ATS, I'm just not sure how that will integrate 
with 'remapping' rules. There's something missing here, and we need to figure 
that out  :).
