Imagined? Please Dossy, let's try to avoid flamewars here. I don't think that Stepen D., Vlad, and Zoran "imagined" the problems they each considered critical to their use of AOLserver. If you instead want to argue that their problems are somehow unique and bizarre to them - all three of them - and not shared by anyone else, fine, go ahead and do that. But I don't recommend it. Hell, as one trivial example, Vlad says that among other things he's added UDP support. Various people (e.g., Tom Jackson) have been asking for that for YEARS. I have trouble believing that everything else those 3 guys have worked on is of no value to anyone else. Look, I don't use the multi-protocol stuff, but I can EASILY imagine doing so in the future, especially if these new features are as well done as the rest of AOLserver seems to be - and I have every reason to believe that they will be. I love AOLserver, so far it's always been a fabulous tool, and I DO see it as a tool, not "just" as a web server. As far as I'm concerned, the more capable and the higher quality that tool, the better. AFAICT, the current "allowed to hack on the AOLserver core" team consists of Dossy and Jim Davidson, NOBODY else. That seems a little, um, small, restricted, and parochial, don't you think? Dossy, you seem to have 3 rather well-proven programmers here who are not only willing, but clamoring to devote significant amounts of time to improving the AOLserver core.
