--- Comment #1 from Rich Bowen <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Philippe Cloutier from comment #0) > The “What is it?” section of the README starts with: > > The Apache HTTP Server is a powerful and flexible HTTP/1.1 compliant web > > server. Originally designed as a replacement for the NCSA HTTP Server, it > > has grown to be the most popular web server on the Internet. > > > I find this misleading, implying or strongly suggesting that httpd is the > most popular web server on the Internet. But as reported in ticket #70039, > according to a survey Apache itself cites, httpd would not have been #1 for > 7 to 10 years. Noted. > By the way: > 1. Even in technical circles, very few know the NCSA HTTP Server. That does not make the statement inaccurate. It is a historical note. > 2. The paragraph’s last sentence suggests httpd is not yet “robust, > commercial-grade, standards-based server with freely available > source code”. No, it does not suggest that at all. It suggests that these are tenets by which design decisions are made. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
