Just a little comment.

I've builded the mod_webapp module and it fail when session are in use.
May be related to cookies support. I could tell you more later after
some capture with ethereal.

I wonder if mod_webapp will support Load Balancing and Fault Tolerance.
It's not clear in Directives.

Another point of mod_jk is for Dan and about the question of security
and or ligth crypto support. ajp12/ajp13 didn't support ACL to accept/deny
connections from a list of known host, and the protocol is in clear text.
Costin suggest using SSH tunnels which be a fast work-around but I really
like to have this ACL+CRYPTO included in mod_jk/ajp13.

Did mod_webapp will support ACL/CRYPTO ? Even if crypto is not easily
exportable
even mod_ssl is such relaxed now that it could be used in Redhat
Distributions (6.2/7.0)

Count me on.
