NAME
       Apache::Session::Serialize::Base64 - Use Storable and MIME::Base64 to zip up persistent data

SYNOPSIS
	use Apache::Session::Serialize::Base64;

	$zipped = Apache::Session::Serialize::Base64::serialize($ref);
	$ref = Apache::Session::Serialize::Base64::unserialize($zipped);

DESCRIPTION
       This module fulfills the serialization interface of Apache::Session.  It serializes the data in the session object by use of Storable's
       "nfreeze()" and "thaw()" functions, and MIME::Base64's "encode_bas64" and "decode_base64".  The serialized data is ASCII text, suitable for
       storage in backing stores that don't handle binary data gracefully, such as Postgres.

AUTHOR
       This module was written by Jeffrey William Baker <jwbaker@acm.org>.
