Hi Jim, perhaps some of your confusion comes from the fact that rh9,  
fc1, and fc2 all contain the mod_ssl package as part of the httpd  
package.  In the older rh 7.3, mod_ssl was separate from apache.

OK, sounds like you're just upset because you didn't see this until  
the updates-testing notification.  I'm not sure I understand what  
you're trying to say here.

Anyway, sorry for the confusion.
