Understaning the Apache Code
i bought the book to underdtand how apache worked interanlly. the book does a good job of that. however the the code commentry is pretty disjointed. the compilers have done a excellent job of putting together this. we should see more of such types.

Print out the source code yourself and read it.
I am disappointed in the actual code commentary, it does NOT do a good job of explaining the code. Most of the time the commentary does nothing more than tell you what a function does - and it is obvious from the name anyway. Apache has a lot of standard programming conventions and internal libraries. I think those should have been covered first and in depth. It would make the Apache source code much more understandable. I read through the first chapter or so of Linux Core Commentary and it seems much more well written.
