I went through all the Apache threads so far this afternoon to summarize the current state of discussion, here is where I believe things stand:
- The next case will support both worker and prefork MPM. I believe we have closure on this. Seema has posted details on the delivery. - Configuration of MPM choice. Seema, can you summarize the answer? - Closure on file layout versioning. The 2007/169 case had /usr/apache2 (and corresponding places in /etc and /var). There's been much discussion on whether to stay the course or permit minor releases of 2.x to coexist (and there are several way to accomplish that, but the higher order question is whether coexistence is the goal). The main argument for this appears to be for upgrades, so that upgrading from S10 doesn't break a working installation. - There was discussion of adding a 'build' directory. Closure? - There were various proposals on directory name changes (modules, conf.d) but the consensus was that names should not change unless there is a strong reason. So I believe there is closure on existing names (libexec, extras). Thoughts? Corrections? Etc? Hit list reply... -- Jyri J. Virkki - jyri.virkki at sun.com - Sun Microsystems
