I think mod_wombat is not even in beta, every now and then something
is broken and refactored differently. For example, last week I
couldn't use request headers_in / headers_out anymore because this
part was refactored, but not entirely... If you are in a hurry,
mod_wombat is not a solution for you. At the moment, a lot of things
are broken or do not work correctly (you get segmentation fault on 404
or on Lua errors when using some configuration options for example).
But it is a very interesting project and it will surely change the way
people work with Apache.
