+<summary>
+    <p>This module <em>requires</em> the service of <module
+    >mod_proxy</module>. It provides support for the passing the socket of the
+    client to another process.
+    <p><code>mod_proxy_fdpass</code> uses the ability of AF_UNIX domain 
+    sockets to <a href="http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=recv">pass an 
+    open file descriptor</a> to allow another process to finish handling a request.
+    </p>
+
+    <p>The module has a <code>proxy_fdpass_flusher</code> provider interface, 
+    which allows another module to optionally send the response headers, or even
+    the start of the response body.  The default flush provider disables keep-alive,
+    and sends the response headers, letting the external process just send a
+    response body.</p>
+
+    <o>At this time the only data passed to the external process is the client 
+    socket. To recieve a client socket, call recvfrom with the an allocated 
+    <a href="http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man3/cmsg.3.html"
+    ><code>struct cmsghdr</code></a>. Future versions of this module may include
+    more data after the client socket, but this is not implemented at this time.
+    </p>
