I'd bet that mod_perl's slower growth rate over the past couple of years 
has a lot to do with Apache2 and no production mod_perl2.

Thus, people wanting Apache2 would immediately screen out mod_perl. I 
think that's an awfully big hill to climb to convince new adopters, i.e. 
either stick with Apache1 or try a non-production mod_perl2.

Fortunately, with the imminent arrival of production mod_perl2, the 
growth rates of mod_perl will probably go up. (I'm guessing from hints 
in this thread that an announcement is imminent, right? Heck, I'm 
already using it in production.)

If possible, an rpm version of mod_perl2 ready at the same time as the 
announcement of a press release would probably help new adopters to try 
it out.

Take care,

Kurt
