Hello Luke,

Sorry for the delayed response, been pretty tied up as of late.

I've had some time to think about nginx version 10, and I continue to
remember how our old nginx08 package was over ran by EPEL releasing a up
to date version of nginx. That being the case I think it may be a better
approach to ask the EPEL maintainer 'Jeremy Hinegardner' if he is
considering making the jump from version 08 to either 09 or 10:

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/SRPMS/repoview/nginx.html

I would bring to Jeremy's attention (as you did to me) Nginx 08 is now
the legacy stable release and 09 and 10 are the stable release:

    http://nginx.org/en/download.html

Once we figure out Jeremy's plan, we can then make a better decision for
nginx 10 in IUS.

Title:
  Nginx 1.0

Status in IUS Community Project:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Currently nginx07 is on the repo. But even nginx08 is considered
  legacy (see http://nginx.org/en/download.html).

  The repo could contain 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, and 1.0, but I'm really not
  convinced this would be necessary as versions prior have been leading
  up to 1.0. Nginx is gaining more momentum, and most people will
  probably go with 1.0. There really isn't much of a difference between
  0.9 and 1.0.

  Nginx doesn't support dynamic modules as it would incur a speed
  penalty. The current version of nginx in the repo has no indication of
  what modules are compiled in. For example the ssl module is not
  included by default, so there is no way of knowing if ssl is built in
  or not. There is also no indication if pcre is dynamically or
  statically linked.
