Man, naming incubator projects is hell enough, why bring that kind of
wasted time to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
On a serious note, For all future 1.3.x and 2.x releases, 'Apache HTTP
Server' or whatever the consensus turns out to be is fine by me.
I still stand by "Apache Server Framework" as the best choice. The ASF'S
