We have two completely different pieces of software. The fact that they are both called Apache is just marketing. By saying bug fixes only in 1.3 you are effectively telling people who want to work on it to get lost. There are plenty of evolutionary things that could be done in it short of the revolutionary jump to Apache2. We know the jump is too big for a big chunk of the market but nobody seems to want to address that. -Rasmus
