Just to point out - [email protected] is closed some time ago.

Either [email protected] for development discussions, or
[email protected] for the documentation/manual author's list
or [email protected] for user configuration issues are more
likely to attract the right attention depending on the post.

I'm curious - we should track down any remaining pointers at the
modproxy-dev list and ensure it's completely phased out.
