| I don't intend to do so, certainly not on the strength of a single
| message.  Thomas has been very helpful to Xitami users on this list, and
| with the expection of this one message all has other messages have been
| about programs that work with Xitami, helping fill in the gaps between
| what Xitami does and what users want to do (eg, use it with ColdFusion).
|
| Obviously if there were continuing advertisements for a competing
| webserver then it would be a cause for concern.  However a single
| announcement of a new program that might be of use to users of an existing
| program that isn't being updated is well within accepted netiquette
| (based on a dozen or so years on the 'net).
|
| Thomas is right that Xitami really hasn't been maintained much (due to
| lack of time) over the past few years -- IIRC the last minor update was
| over a year ago, and the last major update was more than 2 years ago.
| From time to time there are plans to change this, but a lack of free
| time often gets in the way of such good plans.
