Hello, David.  That is a fair question.  Based on user feedback, Apache2
support and PostgreSQL support are the two most desired features, followed
by a slew of minor little improvements.  Right now I'm working on the 1.19
release, which lays the groundwork for both of the major improvements by:

1) Moving to Autoconf
2) Breaking the module into individual .c/.h files

These combined will break the shackles of the one monolithic source file /
one monolithic Makefile paradigm.  (You probably saw 1.19b1 released on
the discussion list a week ago.)  The module didn't need such complexity
in the beginning -- when it was basically a 'hopped up' mod_log_config --
but now that the module has grown and expanded to cover so many more
features and platforms...

Another thing that needs to go in place is out-of-the-box support for
Win32 & other architectures.  I have patches for Win32, for example, and
need to put them in.

I anticipate that PostgreSQL support will come before Apache2, since PG
has the edge when it comes to user requests/feedback.  I certainly cannot
ignore Apache2 any longer, as it is now the default Apache shipped with
major distros like Mandrake and Red Hat.

Do I have an ETA on Apache2?  Not yet.  I'd like to go ahead and get 1.19
out there first.  But certainly, if you would like to participate in the
Apache2 port then I would be most grateful for your expertise.

I've cc'd this to the distro list since its subject matter is relevant to
a lot of folks.

Regards,
Chris
