How would you configure Apache to be extension-less given that  you need things like:
&lt;code&gt;
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3  # For PHP
AddType application/x-tar .tgz          # For 'shorthand' tar.gz
AddType text/html .shtml                # For server-parsed
&lt;/code&gt;
to have it send the proper 'content-type' to the broswer?
&lt;br&gt;
&amp;lt;/topic&amp;gt;&lt;p&gt;
As an aside, I completely agree that end user apps should be extensionless.  I don't think extensions are a bad thing for webservers.  How often do you enter http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=3628 in the location bar of your browser?  Odds are you type http://www.perlmonks.org and click 'Newest Nodes' or just have a bookmark...
