logrotate

Hi!

If I have one website and I want to rotate its logs, there's one instance of logrotate that is launched. There are as many logrotate instances launched as they are virtual websites.

Here you can find mod_log_rotate, with a 1.3 version and (only) 2.0 version:

http://www.hexten.net/wiki/index.php/Mod-log-rotate

It's 6 years old. Is there something new, or maybe is there something like that in recent Apache versions?

I didn't find anything like that, and I don't know if this code is still "usable" for recent Apache versions (2.2.x)

Don't hesitate to edit my post to make it proper English, thanks a lot!
