If VSI continues to support "Apache" on VMS, then it should be *Apache*
, not some proprietary port. A proprietary port means that when patches
or new features become available to the world, they are not availble to
VMS customers.
Also, "<company> Secure Web Server" has 0 marketing value. If VSI can
claim that Apache runs on VMS, then this has marketing value.
Also having WASD for higher performance wich takes advantage of VMS
would be good for those who prefer a less common web server that fits
better in VMS.
One aspect:
If Command files are to be a supported scripting language, then some
form of support must be provided for file uploads, long free form text
fields and other constructs which don't fit well in DCL symbols. (or
update DCL to support those).
