The ASF has renamed their conferences from ApacheCon to Community over Code, so foundation leadership seems receptive to moving away from the Apache name.
I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if the name is changed in the next couple of years.
The name was originally just a silly joke, since it was “a patchy web server” (as it was an open source web server abandoned by the original author, but kept going by a community sharing patches to fix bugs and add features).
That reminds me, I just learned yesterday (from a crossword) that Natives In Tech has actually asked Apache Software to change their name last year.
I don’t think it’ll happen anytime soon, but seeing them here in the picture reminded of that.

Oh that’s a pretty good start indeed
