Committed in trunk, you can see some examples in:

https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/mod/event.html
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/mod/mod_lua.html

Some comments made so far:

- add the module's name to the bugzilla link (Open bugs) to visualize only
relevant bugs
- move Httpd to HTTPD
- think about moving "Bugfix checkilist" to "Developer Resources" (still
thinking about this one because I'd like to keep something that connect the
user looking for a bug to these links).

Any other feedback is welcome!

Luca
