Established in 1999, the all-volunteer Apache Software Foundation (ASF) oversees more than sixty-five leading Open Source projects, including Apache HTTP Server — the worlds most popular Web server software. Through The ASFs meritocratic process known as The Apache Way, nearly 300 individual Members and 2,000 Committers successfully collaborate to develop freely available enterprise-grade software, benefiting millions of users worldwide: thousands of software solutions are distributed under the Apache License; and the community actively participates in ASF mailing lists, mentoring initiatives, and ApacheCon, the Foundations official user conference, trainings, and expo. The ASF is funded by individual donations and corporate sponsors including Google, HP, Microsoft, Progress Software, SpringSource, and Yahoo! For more information, visit http://www.apache.org/
