[Xitami] Xitami/5 - new project announcement

[Hogan]

man you guys do things the hard way!!!!  ;-) such a simpler solution 
exists and I have NO speed issues, mind you I am fibre optic 200mps 
sustained 400 burstable and running about 350 virtual servers.  Xitami 
rox all on its own, do not require any third party stuff like lrwp, just 
php and mysql which is a breeze to setup in Xitami.  Please do not do 
away with the editable text files, please do not make it like Apache!!!
