Yes, mod_perl 2.0 is still in beta. There will be some work required to port from mod_perl 1.0 to mod_perl 2.0 so switching to a syntax that works in both may save pain later.

You mentioned on the CB that the 'handler : method' syntax didn't work for you. It works for me on the stock standard Perl 5.6.1 and mod_perl 1.3.26 in Debian stable. It definitely won't work with Perl before 5.6 and may not work with earlier versions of mod_perl. I'm interested in what configuration doesn't work for you since I plan on releasing a module to CPAN that uses that syntax.

Update: Sorry, 1.3.26 is obviously my Apache version number. I'm actually running mod_perl version 1.27
