Right.  It used to be either .NET or LAMP, but we've gotten so many
different options for each letter that it's not really worth acronizing
them.

It's not like anyone's going to understand what you're talking about if you
say you're running a CLiMP stack.  Just say "oh, I'm using cherokee on
ubuntu server to serve out requests from php-cgi processes".  Then people
who have heard of cherokee, but aren't in enough to know these clever little
things, will know what you're talking about.

IMO, it's better to use the actual name if you want to promote it - imagine
coming upon a pretty awesome website and noticing "Powered by CLiMP" at the
bottom.  That's going to be much harder to track down than a "Powered by
Cherokee" message.
