Subject: Fix links and update content in introduction.  Update page content to
X-Git-Tag: pre_ajp_proxy~202

Fix links and update content in introduction.  Update page content to
reflect that mod_ssl in 2.0 doesn't actually provide the most of the
backwards-compat hooks; leave it as a guide for migration.

-The idea in mod_ssl is mainly the following: because mod_ssl provides mostly a
-superset of the functionality of all other solutions we can easily provide
-backward compatibility for most of the cases. Actually there are three
-compatibility areas we currently address: configuration directives,
-environment variables and custom log functions.</p>   
+mod_ssl mostly provides a superset of the functionality of all other
+solutions, so it's simple to migrate from one of the older modules to
+mod_ssl. The configuration directives and environment variable names
+used by the older SSL solutions vary from those used in mod_ssl;
+tables are included here to give the equivalents used by mod_ssl to
+allow easy migration. .</p>

 <section id="configuration"><title>Configuration Directives</title>
-<p>For backward compatibility to the configuration directives of other SSL
-solutions we do an on-the-fly mapping: directives which have a direct
-counterpart in mod_ssl are mapped silently while other directives lead to a
-warning message in the logfiles. The currently implemented directive mapping
-is listed in <a href="#table1">Table 1</a>. Currently full backward
-compatibility is provided only for Apache-SSL 1.x and mod_ssl 2.0.x.
-Compatibility to Sioux 1.x and Stronghold 2.x is only partial because of
-special functionality in these interfaces which mod_ssl (still) doesn't
-provide.</p>
