[users@httpd] Happy 20th Birthday, httpd

[Rich Bowen <rb...@rcbowen.com>]

For those that missed ApacheCon last week in Austin, I wanted to share a 
few things.

This year marks the 20th birthday of the Apache httpd project (or late 
last year, depending on how you count) and so we had a little 
celebration. The feather that was made for the Apache conference in 1998 
- https://www.flickr.com/photos/iamamoose/63963722/ - was at ApacheCon, 
and we tried to stage the same photo again, as much as was possible:

We also took pictures with all of the httpd committers who were present 
(although I expect we missed a few people.) :

And, we had a birthday cake

There's lots more ApacheCon photos here:

We're very proud of what we've accomplished over the last 20 years, and 
I'm pretty excited about the next 20. Thank you, every one of you, for 
being part of this journey, whether you've been here one day or the 
whole 20 years.

Pedantic point.  Not exactly.  The Apache HTTPD project came into
being with the ASF.  The project born in 1995 was a web server
just called "Apache".

OK, I guess you're right.  It's just the difference between
a maiden name and taking on your master's name ;)
