--As of October 14, 2007 12:26:50 PM +0200, [EMAIL PROTECTED] is
alleged to have said:
Why is that? Does Apple not provide the resources to make this possible?
Personally I think they should because the Mac is a great development
platform. I think Apple would win more developers to the platform if it
were more open and a bit more up-to-date. Not shipping Apache 2 seems
obstinate to me.
--As for the rest, it is mine.
Stability within a release version is a good goal. You never want things
to _stop_ working when you put out a patch. If a developer wants the
latest version of something they can put it on themselves. (Especially if
it is open source.) If they are relying on the version that is installed
for some reason, you don't want to surprise them by changing it
unexpectedly.
