But how do you propose we come up with perfect Apache 2.0 support?
FastCGI :)
If we limit it to the pre-fork mpm, we can probably get quite close to perfect stability, but for any of the threaded mpms we are completely at the mercy of the threadsafetyness of all the various third party libraries on all the various platforms that PHP runs on. There is simply no way to ensure that PHP against Apache 2.0 with a threaded mpm will be production quality. The best we can do is pick a small set of extensions and a small set of platforms and say that with the limited set of extensions, against a specific set of versions of addon libraries on a specific version of that OS, yes, it should be production quality - maybe. -Rasmus
Sounds like windows now ;) Shane
