* +1, it installs (and uninstalls!!!) very smoothly (tested on Win2k).
* it leaves some registry keys behind (nothing tragic).
* it leaves the log files and config files behind after uninstall.
The log files *might* be a problem if they are big, OOTH it's
nice to preserve them across version upgrades. It's not so good
to leave the config installed, as a new version might bring an updated
httpd.conf (possibly with security fixes!) which would not overwrite
the installed version, right? Maybe, if you preserve it, you might
rename it to httpd.conf-1.3.19 on uninstall (and remove the
httpd.default.conf and the srm/access.conf entirely?).
Looks good, feels good, I'd +1 it (if someone with a Win9x tests it too).
Thanks,
Martin
