 Yep, I agree to this.  people feel that free means no support, open source
means the code is available for the hacker's eyes.



but to say this, means your company doesn't like or use Apache?



I know the answer... new free software as well as new paid for software
needs to go though its testing phase before it is excepted.  and this is
hard because no one wants to test free when it is half the time poorly
supported by its creators.

I'm just pointing out a good widely used business level program that is
fairly main stream )
