<p>The <a href="http://www.apache.org/">Apache Software Foundation</a>
|
|
provides organizational, legal, and financial support for a broad
|
|
range of open source software projects. The Foundation provides
|
|
an established framework for intellectual property and financial
|
|
contributions that simultaneously limits contributors potential
|
|
legal exposure. Through a collaborative and meritocratic
|
|
development process, Apache projects deliver enterprise-grade,
|
|
freely available software products that attract large communities
|
|
of users. The pragmatic Apache License makes it easy for all
|
|
users, commercial and individual, to deploy Apache products.</p>
|
|

<p>The Apache HTTP Server -- sometimes called Apache httpd -- is
|
|
a project of the Apache Software Foundation aimed at creating a
|
|
robust, commercial-grade, featureful, and freely-available
|
|
source code implementation of an HTTP (Web) server. For more
|
|

<title>How thoroughly tested is Apache?</title>
|
|
<p>Apache is run on millions of Internet servers.
|
|
It has been tested thoroughly by both developers and users. The Apache
|
|
HTTP Server Project maintains rigorous standards before releasing new
|
|
versions of our server, and our server runs without a hitch on over
|
|
70% of all WWW servers available on the Internet. When bugs do show
|
|
up, we release patches and new versions as soon as they are
|
|
available.</p>
