I noticed that there doesn't seem to be much focus on making PHP4 stable as an ISAPI under pre-.NET Microsoft IIS using the Microsoft SQL Server DLL extension (works ok as a cgi though), or even on making Apache 1.3.x sapi stable (Apache 1.3 for Windows is forever branded "beta" so corporations stay away from it, although developers know it is better than IIS in some uses, anyway) although as cgi it is stable. So we run in CGI mode on Windows 2000/NT and we're happy, for now. But I'd like to see PHP kick .NET's butt back to Redmond! To be considered serious by corporations (meaning that PHP jobs on dice.com will pay near what ASP or Perl or JSP pays, and somewhat comparable quantity of positions), php4 has got to compete head to head with Asp Dot Not and Visual Fred. Running as an ISAPI is great *for transition*, but, Apache 2.0 for Windows XP/Whistler is THE future of PHP, commercially - can you disagree? I'm wondering if any of you guys are seriously considering Apache 2.0.16 and if working on mod_php is a real priority to you. (Someday, I'll be skilled enough to help you, but for now I'm just trying to get my college's website away from the grips of non-extensible non-maintainable webstuff, eh.) Again, thanks for all the work you do. As soon as I can sell php to upper management, we'll support Zend (et.al.) as much as possible!
