 RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP:
+    * Add a Logging Directive to exclude logging based on mime type.
+        see http://mbox.apachelabs.org/apache-mbox/200201.mbox/%3cELEDJONBOPPAEGANDEEIEENCCAAA.joshua@slive.ca%3e for discussion.

+        Lars Says:
+            But is matching on mime-types really a required feature?
+            IMHO most people are happy with the current conditional logging
+            feature, e.g., matching on REQUEST_URI.
+
+            I tend to be -1 on your patch Ian, because the directive is too
+            specific. We either need a more generic one or just stick with
+            the current (or an enhanced) conditional logging functionality.

+        Ian Says:
+            Large Sites/Sites with other heavy CPU loads need a 'cheap'
+            way to exclude 90% of all log lines (eg images)
+            Regex Matching takes ~5-10 times longer than a simple hash get.
