=head1 NOTES

This module requires that the primary authorization handler set
the REMOTE_GROUP environment variable with the group to which the
user successfully was authorized.

This module also has a workaround to the bugs in the
set_handlers() method of mod_perl-1.2x. It will write notes to
downstream handlers.

At the time of publication, the only primary authorization
handler established to both set the REMOTE_GROUP and read the
notes left by AuthzCache is Apache::AuthzLDAP.
