of course, ubuntu IS a great server plattform! but why is this? 'cause
of debian I think. there aren't any limitations by using ubuntu as a
server operating system, but isn't it more comfortable to install debian
~ than ubuntu-"custom"?

anyway, in my opinion there MUST be PHP5 packages in debian/ubuntu
(similar to other packages should been up to date). don't think just
about the private users, or why there aren't many webhosters, using
debian on their servers? (PHP5 is nearly standard for webhosters!).
