Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to Watch Don toss bone to Win32 lovers

Thanks, John. It's not clear to me how important it is to maintaine
compatibility with the latest and greatest AOLServer, since
nobody seems to be able to tell me what will be in 4.x, how
important the new features will be, or when it will be out. (I'm
beginning to suspect that only AOL knows, if anybody knows at
all at this point.)

Whether it's important to run through IIS depends a great deal (I
think) on just how much we can get dotLRN to look like an
stand-alone, easy-to-install, easy-to-maintain package. If people
who want to use it can usefully think of it as a whole, unified app
instead of AOLServer + OpenACS + some stuff on top of
OpenACS, then I don't see IIS compatibility as very important.
