If you are going to offer anyone money to speed up this process, you could try the
guys at Active State, specifically Shane Caraveo, since he told me a goal of his is
specifically to stabliize ISAPI on windows. I believe Shane is on this mailing
list..I'm surprised he hasn't answered the postline yet. Maybe he will?

I recently sent an email looking to pay Zend to work on it (I kind of need
it for the OCI8 Persistent Logon), I have yet to hear back from them. I
sent one, and a sales person sent me back a form note to look at their
support options and they wouldn't have any problem. I sent him back an
email that the problem I was having was mostly related to the stability of
the ISAPI module as opposed to the OCI8 extension (my guess, 80% 20%,
respectively); and, that he'd better check with their programmers before
assuring me that a $180 support request would cover fixing the entire ISAPI
module. That was yesterday. I haven't heard back from him yet.
We've got some money out here. We're willing to give it to these hard
working programmers if they want to work on it. I'm as big a fan of Open
Source as the next guy, but we all need to eat. Hell, it's obvious that we
have more money than knowledge! We use Win don't we?
As for answering your question. I think it still has some stability issues,
mostly with individual extensions not following thread safe guidelines more
than anything. In other words, I don't have any/many problems unless I call
some odd function.
