 RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP:
 
+    * Port of mod_ssl to Apache 2.0:
+
+      The current porting state is summarized in modules/ssl/README.  The next
+      step is to figure out how the old three configuration contexts (global,
+      per-server, per-directory) can be ported to Apache 2.0 (especially the
+      global context which has to survive server restarts RSE still does not
+      know how to port). Then the remaining source files (which depend on the
+      configuration contexts) which are still tagged with "-" in
+      modules/ssl/README can be ported. 
+      
+      One more thing to figure out is how and when mod_ssl can provide the
+      interactive pass phrase dialog (in Apache 1.3 it used the first init
+      round [where tty was still not detached] and skipped the second init
+      round [where it was already detached]). Apache 2.0 requires (or already
+      has?) an official hook where such tty-dialogs can be performed.
+
+      RSE is on holiday until June 11th, 2001. After this he starts
+      working on mod_ssl again and tries to make mod_ssl running inside
+      Apache 2.0 by end of June. If anyone wants to help making mod_ssl
+      running in the meantime, feel free to make your hands dirty inside
+      modules/ssl/. Do whatever you think is appropriate to get it
+      running. I've no objections of any kind, except: just do not
+      remove any old functionality. Keep everything, even if it needs
+      #if 0...endif wrapped to not make trouble for you.

     * Performance: Get SINGLE_LISTENER_UNSERIALIZED_ACCEPT
       optimization working again. Bill would like to see this
       working for the threaded MPM, then prefork.
