Monoculture can grow to be a problem for the Free Software community
as this incident clearly shows. So having several high quality solutions
and some diversity is good even for webservers. The Free Software is out there, we just have to foster diversity. I'm a long time user of
the Caudium (www.caudium.info) webserver (a people's fork of Roxen formerly known Spinner, aka Spider) and it is good to have a choice.
