First, what is the connection between meekness and humility? "Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth." I've heard meekness defined as strength under control.
Second, the new (2011) NIV clarifies Philippians 2:6 a little bit: "Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage..." If you read the translators' notes on the major changes (they are online somewhere) they discuss this change a little bit.
