OpenASP from the ActiveScripting Organization

The ActiveScripting Organization, started in August of 1998, is a group within Summit Software Company. This group is constructing Open Source software solutions that will allow developers to host ASP applications on several non-Microsoft web servers. Currently this project's focus is the creation of ASP support for the Apache web server. See Table 3.2 for details.

Reviewing the ActiveScripting site in preparation for writing the second edition of this book, there appears to have been little development on OpenASP for non-Win32 platforms since writing the first edition.
