<note><title>Note</title>
- <p>The module name format changed for Windows
- with Apache HTTP Server 1.3.15 and 2.0 - the modules are now named as
- mod_foo.so</p>
-
- <p>While mod_so still loads modules with
- ApacheModuleFoo.dll names, the new naming convention is
+ <p>On Windows, where loadable files typically have a file extension
+ of <code>.dll</code>, Apache httpd modules are called
+ <code>mod_whatever.so</code>, just as they are on other platforms.
+ However, you may encounter third-party modules, such as PHP for
+ example, that continue to use the <code>.dll</code> convention.</p>
+
+ <p>While <code>mod_so</code> still loads modules with
+ <code>ApacheModuleFoo.dll</code> names, the new naming convention is
preferred; if you are converting your loadable module for 2.0,
please fix the name to this 2.0 convention.</p></note>
