+			<p>
+				Web packages should support registration
+				with the system administrator's chosen
+				httpd server under multiple ip based or
+				name based virtual hosts.
+
+			<p>
+				Several methods exist for registering
+				a web application with several virtual
+				hosts:
+
+			<list>
+			<item>
+				The apache module mod_env can be used
+				to provide applications with information
+				on where to find config files
+			<item>
+				Server environment variables such as
+				SERVER_NAME can be used to provide
+				applications with enough information to
+				find what config file/script it should use
+			<item> 
+				For php applications under apache, one
+				can use "php_value auto_prepend_file"
+				to provide configuration scripts for
+				the application
+			</list>
+
+			<p>
+				Under no circumstance should one instance
+				of an application interfere with another
+				instance.
