Changes from previous version
-----------------------------

       + Added mod_perl 2 and mod_perl 1 full compatibility
       + Added OO interface. Now Apache::SessionManager inherits from Apache class
       + Added new cookpod section: "Using Apache::SessionManager without root privileges"
       + Added new cookpod section: "Using Apache::SessionManager with Apache::DBI"
       + Added new cookpod section: "Expiration policies on the client side"
       + Added t/lib/PerlEnvOO.pm simple mod_perl handler to test OO interface
       ! Updated Makefile.PL in order to:
               - accept command line switch '-n' which
                 doesn't ask at prompt and doesn't run live Apache tests. This is to pack
                 easier this package for Debian (suggested by Krzysztof Krzyzaniak
                 <[email protected]>)
               - check correctly environment: test mod_perl generation
                 and test suite. Added messages before configuring test
               - add httpd.conf extra lines for testing with Apache::DBI
       ! Updated PODS
               - SessionManager.pm PODS (VERSION section)
               - added L<> in every module name
               - documented mp1/mp2 bug with "PerlSetVar Foo 0"
               - Switched use of $ENV{'GATEWAY_INTERFACE'} to $ENV{'MOD_PERL'} in cookbook samples
               - Fix 'Expire' with 'Expires'
       ! Bug fix: SessionManagerExpire: '0' => (none|no|disabled) value means no
         expiration time
       ! Moved tests to run only under Apache::testold mod_perl 1 test suite
       ! Ported t/lib/*.pm sample modules to work either with mod_perl 1.0 and 2.0
