Ok..
I've wiped the directories, and regrabbed the entire CVS tree for both http-2.0
and http-proxy.
now it built the makefile ...
I hate this stuff.

I'll try.
we're looking into using 2.0 for our new web site (which should launch in ~6 months)
providing we get the OK from up above (their a bit worried about support and being
guinea pigs, for good reason) we should have a couple of developers working on 2.0 modules
in the near future. (The developers, unlike me, have been developing 1.3 modules for a long time)

Do you need help?

One of the features we need is the reverse proxy, with the additonal feature of passing cookies back from the app server to the client.

Oh..
as an aside, is anyone looking at win32 & proxy ? (from CVS code pulled on friday) It looks conn->remote_addr is not being set in ap_new_connection (when called from ap_proxy_http_handler) causing it to GPF. It looks like maybe the pool is not correct.

I'm very new at 2.0, so I'm not sure what a pool is ;-).. but that will be fixed soon.

Oh .. I built it on 2 machines, so I don't think it is my compile .... this time
