I know that Apache 2 cause a lot of problem because of the lack
of modules though.  But Ralph's right, it is the future of Apache.
I know I can't deploy this (at work sites) yet because of the
limitations.

And also .. something I've noticed is that Apache2 has become
much more complicated to configure and install (talking primarily
about integration with subordinate or cooperative packages like
Jakarta) than 1.3.... I mean signficantly more complicated.
Documentation is lacking.  What used to take a matter of minutes to
compile correctly now takes several attempts (trial and error).
I'm sure it will all get cleaned up eventually though.

Anyone else notice this?
