Please add the comments back into the apache configuration files. I am an experienced apache admin, and it is annoying to have to maintain a config file without comments. I have better things to do with my time than fire up my web browser to search the apache manual when a simple comment above the config option would suffice. New apache users would find the comment-less config file intimidating, and will not learn what each option does if not provided with the appropriate information. The config file is distributed by apache with comments (last I looked), they should be included in the gentoo apache config file also. It is a fact of life that not all apache servers are configured like the default gentoo one, so people are going to be tweaking therir configuration. The lack of comments makes this difficult.
care to explain exactly what is missing, experienced admin?
Donny, You have already demonstrated that you have a personal problem with me. Im not going to continue that. Your snide response to this bug is uncalled for and inappropriate. If you cant tell what is missing by comparing your config file to the original, then im truely surprised. This bug was posted before your problem became apparent, and you can rest assured that I intend to no longer make suggestions which I consider to be improvements to Gentoo for all users, given the childish responses from certain developers.
