I did recently post some notes about how to do this to the mailing list, 
is that what you are refering to?

Keep in mind that you can only get rid of the first /opencms/ in the 
URL, the other one may be /opencms/ or /export/ depending on the export 
status of the page.  Also, the OpenCMS URL rewrite code will still 
output /opencms/opencms/ or /opencms/export/, so the apache rewrite is 
really only useful for the first access of the site.

If you keep those things in mind, the stuff I posted earlier will work.
