Madere, Colin wrote: Anyone smell revisionist history? :P Who's revising history? I first heard the A PAtCHy server story in a course on implementing web security. I found it humorous, but recall thinking at the time that I had read elsewhere that it was definitively named for the native American people. (A PAtCHy server does not account for the feather, a traditional, albeit stereotyping, symbol of Native Americans.) Thus I'm inclined to believe the ASF story at face rather than ascribe conspiracy theories to it. I think it's clearly stated on the Apache website that A PAtCHy server is incorrectly, however popularly, attributed as the reason for the name. I can't imagine that ASF is revising their own history. I would like to point out that the ASF makes no mention of the name's origin in the official history of Apache (http://httpd.apache.org/ABOUT_APACHE.html), though a number of references to patches are made. Anyway, isn't this a topic for the Apache Users List? :P - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Apache has NOTHING to do with indigenous American people. It stands for a patchy software. If that's a pun, it's a bit out of place. If it's a joke, so be it. If it is an oppinion, then you got something mixed up - what's the feather on the web site for? Nix.

Re: [OT] how to pronounce Apache ?
It's true. The name comes from A PatCHy server. It was first developed as a series of patches to the NCSA (National Center for Supercomputer Applications) httpd 1.3 web server, and was informally named A PatCHy server. The first stable release, V1.0, was released on 1 December, 1995. This was essentially the NCSA 1.3 server with a number of fixes and enhancements. http://www.zdnet.com/anchordesk/story/story_1284.html -- *** * Rick Roberts* * Advanced Information Technologies, Inc. * * http://www.ait-web.com * *** Yiannis Mavroukakis wrote: Yes, if memory serves me right the server name was a wordplay on A patchy server :) -Original Message- From: Stuart MacPherson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 11 August 2003 10:23 To: 'Tomcat Users List' Subject: RE: [OT] how to pronounce Apache ?
