Hi Pierre,
ISAPI has been the sapi of choices for the last decade on windows with IIS or PWS. Now that FastCGI support is available for IIS6/7 on all supported windows versions (supported by MSFT or php.net) including XP, Vista, 2k, 2k3 and 2k8 (x86 or x64), I would like to stop to support the ISAPI interface. We can do it in php 5.3.x as it is an important enough update both from a features point of view and for the Windows platforms. Any objection? Comments?
It's way late to talk about dropping support for any SAPI in PHP 5.3.* IMHO. If you're planning to do this (and I assume you're saying it on M$ advice) then it would be better to give plenty of warning beforehand, ie do it in PHP 6 and make sure that the manual/php.ini in 5.3/whatever mentions that support will be dropped in 6.0. - Steph
