Ok, fine with me! But, if you want to tell this to your potential users, you must also give them a reason to switch. If the reason to switch is not to use TCL and use the AOLserver API, what is it? Users won't switch because they can leverage the vast knowledge they already have, for the simple reason they can already do that on Apache. So, what advantage does it then have to run PHP (or language x) on AOLserver instead of Apache? This a critical in the communication to potential users, since, likely they already use Apache. - Is PHP faster on AOLserver than on Apache? - Does running PHP on AOLserver provide you with more power? - ??? Actually, I think it is, at this time, better to run PHP on Apache, even though it can be run on AOLserver. This is an issue the project would then need to focus on.
