Not sure if there is a better more technical term for "URIs under a given set of subdirectories on the server". The idea is that the user might only have access to control "/~sicking" and "/trip-planner-2010" and resources under those directories.

I would like this to not mention specific products of any particular
vendor.

Please phrase this generically in terms of the user being able to
control a static resource, being able to control http headers, and
authorization.

(I think I said that on the call already.)

I really dislike mentioning specific servers too, but when I used the wording "typical" then that got lots of negative feedback too.

So the only thing I can think of is to revert "IIS and Apache" back to "commonly installed servers". Other than that I'm out of ideas but would welcome other suggestions.
