Proposal for new project name
by Paul Ferraro
Since the advent of Stuart's Undertow-based mod_cluster
implementation, we've discussed the need to rename the "mod_cluster"
project to better differentiate the general technology/protocol from
its origin as an Apache httpd module. Trivial stuff like this never
feels urgent, but given that we've started a 2.x branch of the source
code, if we're ever going to change the name, we should do it soon.
This email is meant to formally start this discussion.
Personally, I would love to see the a new name loosely associated with
the word Undertow, ideally with a similar irony (i.e. undertow is
generally considered dangerous).
Here are some ideas for names, in the spirit of ocean/water-related phenomena:
* OverDrive (a literal antonym of Under+Tow)
* Overwash (the flow of water and sediment over a coastal dune or
beach crest during storm events)
* Backrush (the return of water seaward, down the foreshore of a
beach, following the uprush of a wave, i.e. the cause of an undertow)
* Uprush (a sudden upward surge or flow)
* FloodTide (Period when tide level is rising)
* TidalBore (a large wave caused by the funneling of a flood tide as
it enters a long, narrow, shallow inlet)
* TidalJet (fast-moving intrusion of water issuing from a narrow gap
through a physical barrier between two bodies of water)
* Upwell (to flow upward)
* RogueWave (exactly what it sounds like)
* Maelstrom (a powerful whirlpool in a sea or river)
* Levada (a portuguese aqueduct)
* Deluge (downpour of rain causing a flood)
* Diluviant (one who pertains to a flood)
* Gilgamesh/Bilgamesh (from the Epic of Gilgamesh, an ancient Sumerian
story describing one of the oldest great flood mythologies)
Of the above, my personal favorites are "Diluviant" and "Maelstrom".
Thoughts? Any other ideas?

mod_cluster 1.2.6.Final -> 1.3.3.Final in Fedora 24 and Fedora 25 updates-testing
by Karm Michal Babacek
Dear mod_cluster users,
it has been years since mod_cluster updates in Fedora ceased
and we would like to resume regular releases starting with Fedora 24.
We would like to kindly ask you to fetch your Fedora 24 and
Fedora 25 virtual machines and give it a try:
# dnf --enablerepo=updates-testing install mod_cluster mod_cluster-java-tomcat8
You might want to read comments in /usr/share/doc/mod_cluster/README on
how to configure Tomcat's server.xml and see /etc/httpd/conf.d/mod_cluster.conf
for firewall and SELinux hints (MODCLUSTER-538).
Upvote the package on the undermentioned links or let us know what
you would like to have improved, please. Your feedback is much appreciated.
Fedora 24 https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-249e92f700
Fedora 25 https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-b6866c5c35
Note about Wildfly
------------------
Unfortunately, Wildfly is broken in Fedora, so we suggest you test
mod_cluster with Tomcat 8. The work on bringing Wildfly back to
Fedora is in progress thanks to Gil, you might follow updates on
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/WildFly#Current_progress
Cheers
-K-
