Apache on CD

[Rob Hartill <ro...@imdb.com>]

Something a luser just wrote to the bugs mail reminded me of
what I was thinking about earlier in the week..

It'd be worthwhile putting Apache onto a CD complete with a
pile of binaries.

Paul, from your FreeBSD experience do you think this is a good
idea and can we get Walnut Creek to do it for us in exchange for
somehting (what do we want?)

A CD could contain all the docs in HTML/ps/pdf, maybe an SSL version.
Other useful freebies could be bundled (if we're allowed) e.g.
Berkeley DB. Archives from comp.infosystems.www.servers.unix etc.

Mmm, maybe WC could archive that for us in return for the business.

thoughts?

We have a burner here at Organic and can make a master...let's get the 
ball rolling on this.  I think it is an excellent idea.  Anyone have any 
contacts at Walnut Creek?

200 hours from a consultant to do a product-quality release build, including
web-based installation and configuration and management tools, with a
run through all the commercial-grade code debugging tools, and with the 
end result being contributed back to the public.
