=head1 NAME

Apache::Session::Serialize::UUEncode - Use Storable and C<pack()>
to zip up persistent data

=head1 SYNOPSIS

use Apache::Session::Serialize::UUEncode;

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

=head1 DESCRIPTION

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

=head1 AUTHOR

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