For what it's worth, I also argued that php (the language itself) should |
| 8 |
be in dev-lang, not dev-php, so using similar reasoning for mod_python |
| 9 |
doesn't really appeal to me. Just as the languages are in dev-lang, I |
| 10 |
feel that the language-specific apache modules should be in www-apache |
| 11 |
(with the caveat that mod_php should probably remain in dev-php because |
| 12 |
that's the preferred choice of the php folks). |

I can accept that argument. |
