That's not the full story with Apache (Score:1)

by Alias (5735)

The way you've laid it out is not entirely how it went down.

The problem with the Apache::Request situation was not that they were going to chance Apache::Request 1 to an incompatible Apache::Request 2.

You would great a major incompatibility, which would mean you had to immediately drop support for Apache::Request 1 (no more releases) and you could only ever have either Apache::Request 1 or Apache::Request 2 installed, you could never have both installed without a completely seperate dedicated Perl install.

  Yeah, I remember the whole thing pretty well, and I'm glad they ended up changing names. It was a real nightmare.
  
  I just simplified, since I wasn't writing really about mod_perl. ;)
