Hi Kamesh, My interpretation of the below snippet (given its context) is that the text is saying that as the web grew, more and more websites/companies/etc., (incl. PHP) started to use the Apache web server as their web hosting solution, even if it was deployed on that websites/companies/etc. own hardware. So it's not saying that PHP, or other company project X was part of Apache, but that they used Apache HTTPD to host their site.
My 2 cents, Chris On 2/10/10 8:01 AM, "Kamesh Jayachandran" <[email protected]> wrote: Hi All, Sorry if it is a wrong mailing list, Please point me to the right one. I was going through http://apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html I found the following snip to ask the question as in the subject. <snip> But as the web grew bigger, economical interests started to grow, and the Apache web site hosted new sister projects (such as the mod_ perl project, the PHP project, the Java Apache project). The need for a more coherent and structured organization that would shield individuals from potential legal attacks felt more and more necessary. </snip> I ask this as I was involved in PHP development 5 years back and am never aware of PHP being part of ASF. I am not subscribed to this list, please CC me in your response.
