We can change "to IIS and Apache" to "with Web server software used by 20% or more of the Web", but I think that would actually just make the requirement less clear (though no more ambiguous). Incidentally, I really would encourage people to not wordsmith these requirements. Unless one actually disagrees with the requirement, I think arguing about them is a waste of time, especially for Anne, who could instead spend time doing real work on the normative parts of the spec. It really makes no difference whether the text says "IIS" or not, at the end of the day. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
