And I thought that mod_redirect added overhead to every request, doing the redirect cycle via the browser. It also exposed the port 8000-based Zope to direct access, which some admin's might not want.
But mostly I thought PCGI (and FastCGI) was the preferred way, since it is covered in detail in Zope's doc/WEBSERVER.TXT and neither mod_proxy nor mod_redirect are mentioned in there. ;-)
I just figured PCGI was cleaner and let me delegate responsibility to each hosting client, to manage their own CGI-BIN stuff w/o access to Apache's config files..
So if we drop PCGI, we'll need an action item to rework that file and perhaps ZopeBook et. al.

I have always run Zope behind Apache utilising mod_proxy.
I have to admit I never tried or really even evaluated pcgi, and don't build it when I install Zope.
Is there a benefit of pcgi over using mod_proxy ?
