I don't want, by no means, start another bikeshed, just get some
clarification:

Is it decided that we will use a http:// based installation?
 - I guess yes, as Matt said he wanted it that way and because a lot of
   people agreed.

Are we fixed at Apache? I.e. don't we want to evaluate some thttpd?
 - Someway I remember reading that PHP4 should run as CGI, so some other
   server might as well do - on the other hand, Apache is well-known and
   tested and not *that* large, so this might not be an issue.

Is Python our backend scripting language of choice?

Do we want/need PHP4 when we have Python anyways?
 - PHP might be better for templating, tho.


I don't want no bikeshed, again. Just some clear this-is-our-direction
statements from the masterminds.
The reply could then be put on the web page or whatever...

cheers
