As long as all of the PHP-based software you have running comes from Debian
packages, then upgrading to Apache 2 will be very straightforward, since any
Debian-packaged software will fully support Apache2+php5, such as Horde and
IMP.

If you've downloaded tarballs of some other PHP-based programs, and not used
Debian versions, then you should be able to just download the latest stable
version of whatever program it is, since Apache2+php5 are the standard
versions now, and are supported by virtually every PHP-based web program.

If you've written your own website with an older version of PHP, then you
should also have the expertise needed to upgrade your program to use PHP5.
