That is difficult to sell to a list full of programmers/scripters. Also, I think it's very important to be clear here that this fastCGI app is not a patch for existing installations (Which use the native API for apache on the *nix side). The fastCGI product will not have commerce tags (so no SiteBuilder sites will work), will have a different lic. system entirely, and will not have sandboxes or "Globals" (so sites that utilize sandbox code or the globals directory will have to be tweaked/recoded in order to work with this fastCGI product). I personally think a rebuild of the Native API app, with the recent feature additions and bug fixes should accompany the fastCGI product.
