That reminds me, I just learned yesterday (from a crossword) that Natives In Tech has actually asked Apache Software to change their name last year.

I don't think it'll happen anytime soon, but seeing them here in the picture reminded of that.

The ASF has renamed their conferences from ApacheCon to Community over Code, so foundation leadership seems receptive to moving away from the Apache name.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the name is changed in the next couple of years.

The name was originally just a silly joke, since it was "a patchy web server" (as it was an open source web server abandoned by the original author, but kept going by a community sharing patches to fix bugs and add features).

Oh that's a pretty good start indeed
