In general, it is not an argument. It is a reason. Ie. I am no trying
to "win" anything here. I just know how I would prefer to avoid
spending my time (ie. debugging installation/setup problems). I am not
advocating anybody else to move to Apache - in fact I don't like the
fact that I did myself, but it was the best of the options I had
available for me, according to my priorities.
Btw, just out of curiosity, any idea what happened to SuSE package of
Roxen? I know there used to be Roxen rpms for SuSE back at SuSE 9.1 at
least.
