3 Q1: Is JAWS an acronym?
4 A1: Yes. It expands to JAWS Adaptive Web System.
6 Q2: Does JAWS support SSL?
7 A2: No. When ACE finishes its wrappers, it will be an
8 easy matter to add support to JAWS.
10 Q3: Is JAWS faster than Apache?
13 Q4: Why does everyone use Apache instead of JAWS?
14 A4: JAWS is not a feature complete server. JAWS is not
15 a drop in replacement for the NCSA HTTP server like
16 Apache. Apache has tens if not hundreds of developers
17 working on it, while JAWS has just me. Help me!
19 Q5: Who else uses JAWS?
20 A5: I have seen hints of many different people using
21 JAWS. I have acknowledged all those I am aware of
22 in the file labeled zTHANKS.
24 Q6: Does JAWS compile on my platform?
25 A6: In principle, JAWS should compile on all platforms
26 that ACE compiles on. JAWS only works on platforms
27 that support threads, however.
29 Q7: What is the development platform of JAWS?
30 A7: JAWS is developed on a FreeBSD box at my home,
31 Solaris x86 at my work, and Solaris Sparcs at
32 school. Periodically, it will get some attention
33 on WinNT to see if it compiles.
35 Q8: What's with JAWS, JAWS2, and JAWS3?
