You are quite passionate about this, aren't you? ;-) Although there was virtual serving in 2.3, it was not hostname based. Personaly, I find that instead of putting extra directives in one config file, moving them to different config files and having some more lines in my start-up scripts not really a big deal and certainly not something that significantly breaks moving code from 2.3 to 3.0. The trade off is worth it considering how much more lean and mean 3+ is! As an added bonus you get a completely seperate environment!
I don't find AOL selfish at all for making any changes, they build a kick-ass server for themselves and share it with the world, thank you very much. They will not make application breaking changes because they are their own major client and don't want to break their own apps. Looking at the track record, maintaining almost 100% code compatibility from 1995 to 2003 (dispite architecture changes) is unheard of in the world of web application servers! Bas. PS: You are perfectly welcome to still run 2.3 if you want to! ;-) I.
