Well, it could be improved. For example, by using the widely-understood word "proxy" somewhere, or defining "web connector". Also by recalling that "Apache" is a huge array of various projects (including Tomcat!), while "Apache HTTP Server" refers to a specific web server daemon that can front-end Tomcat. One could even link "Apache HTTP Server" to 'http://httpd.apache.org/'. -- Mark H. Wood Lead Technology Analyst University Library Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis 755 W.
