I think the biggest argument for changing the web server is the fact
that the Apache in tree doesn't do IPv6, and Apache 2.x does. And,
btw, if you look at early 2.0 releases, you'll see they are still
under the Apache 1.1 License or whatever 1.3 was under. The
incompatible Apache license wasn't put in until after a few 2.x
releases.
