“The Apache Group is pleased to announce the release of the
1.3.4 version of the Apache HTTP server, including a Win32 build.
Apache 1.3.4 is the best version of Apache currently available;
everyone running 1.2.X servers or earlier should upgrade to 1.3, as
there will not be any further 1.2.X releases. At present, the Win32
port of Apache is not as stable as the UNIX version. Further
releases of the 1.3.x tree will bring the Win32 port closer to
parity.”
“Apache has been the most popular web server on the Internet
since April of 1996. The January 1999 WWW server site survey by
Netcraft found that over 53% of the web sites on the Internet are
using Apache (58% if Apache derivatives are included), thus making
it more widely used than all other web servers combined.”
