You could also suggest IIS users to switch to Apache 2.0.50 for Windows :)
I'd love to -- and have.
Unfortunately, some have drank too much Microsoft Kool-Aid.
A good number desparately want NTLM-based authentication. [They like the single-sign on for Windows clients, but they love the notion of better security than clear-text name/password, etc, without having to buy a server certificate or use HTTPS on their intranet.] If Apache 2 had a stable module for this (whether or not it was from the ASF itself), I would think this would be a good step to get these folk to shift to Apache.
Then it may be better to spend the time implementing an NTLM auth for Tomcat and Apache instead of spending the time supporting IIS :-)
Quite possibly...
Though there is also a sizable contingent of "we've got to have someone to sue" folk, i.e. they're down on open source software due to a lack of people to throw lawsuits at rather than due to a lack of support.
Sad but true....
