Re: Enquiry about mod_perl project state

I make many thousands of $$$ per month from my websites, all of which are
based on mod_perl. I wrote everything myself.

Rewriting them would be undesirable and very cost prohibitive.

I have no real need for any "evolution" and "continued development" of
mod_perl, which I consider to be as perfect as things get. All I want is
for mod_perl to continue working with evolving apache, so:

Do you think that if Apache makes some big changes, mod_perl will follow?

I have a huge money at stake here and my family well being depends sorely
on mod_perl's reliable existence.
