Actually, the formal title is Apache HTTPD Server Project (and PMC)

Hello...
True, but I would like to know what the 'official' name should be.

The official name is "Apache HTTP Server Project". Just look at
httpd.apache.org or www.apache.org and that's pretty clear.

Yeah, but that's not the official name.

Yes, but nitpicking is fun! ;]

Wait, now we have two people stating different "official" names. Either
it has the D or not..
This whole thing is silly anyway, since nobody really calls it by the
full 11 or 12 syllable name. Most of the people I talk to just call it
"Apache" or "the Apache server" or even rarely "the Apache webserver".

Oh, I know, but I believe it is "Apache HTTP Server Project" and it's
abbreviation is httpd. Yes, this is splitting hairs.
We're constantly trying to removed the stupid D from places where
it doesn't belong. Nowhere else on httpd.apache.org do we say:
"Apache HTTPD" or "Apache HTTPD Server Project."
Regardless - having a title of "Apache HTTPD - The Apache HTTP Server
Project" seemed redundant. -- justin
