History
This module was experimental in Apache 1.1.x [2].
As of Apache 1.2, mod_proxy stability was greatly improved [3].
Since Apache 2.0 proxy features are divided into several modules in addition to mod_proxy: mod_proxy_http, mod_proxy_ftp and mod_proxy_connect — moreover caching is provided by mod_cache and related modules [4].
Since Apache 2.2 mod_proxy_ajp and mod_proxy_balancer added too [5].
