Is there a 2.2 port? Is there plans to do one? Was it tried and found that there are significant obstacles in the way of getting 2.2 to run under CentOS 4.4?
Very significant obstacles ... everything needs to be recompiled to use the new version. And even then, it breaks things. It is possible, if you rebuild enough stuff. However ... once you rebuild all that, might as well be using Fedora Core. Especially since you need to keep rebuilding it every update.
I believe that one of the big things Apache 2.2 provides, will be a Comet worker module. Given the importance of Ajax in web serving now, anything which dramatically reduces latency and effiency both client-side and server- side, should be warmly welcomed.
