I am stumped.

I am dismayed at the corporate bullying from (one member of) the ASF which I assumed was a collaborative organization - not such a dangerous legal entity.

The admonishment not to use the feather or the "Apache" name resembles the behavior of the very worst big-software corporations - and a reminder that ASF is after all "... a corporation registered in Delaware, United States..." - not a fellowship of web server administrators, developers, and enthusiasts. It is a sober reminder to us all that caution is needed when dealing with Apache software as with any other software, lest we forget that httpd has become "their product" vs. "our web server".

Members of the Apache Lounge team has discussed the issues: We are closing Apache Lounge.

For me it is not worth to spend anymore time on promoting Apache on Windows and given free support.
