Chatting with Ken Coar

A reader writes: " It appears that Ken Coar will be doing an IRC chat on Slashnet today. Ken's an Apache core developer and director, as well as author of The Apache Cookbook." It's worth noting that DevChannel is part of the sinister keiretsu. As pointed out, it'll be in #forum, at 2:00 PM EST today.

This is the first story Ive ever seen where EVERYONE has been moderated to = 0. Sad. Must be an angry day for the moderators.

Hehe

Great interview, it shows something I have been thinking about for a few years. Ever since the creation of the project you see developers assumming ...

What the hell, I don't know what the interview is about !!! I had to make a comment in here!!!! Is anybody in here?

Poor old Ken

[Anonymous Coward]

if I was Ken Coar I'd be pretty depressed that I'd only generated 11 comments after 1 hour and 15 minutes on slashdot... Sorry Ken, here's number 12 for luck! ;) Lets get a campaign going to cheer him up

Yep. Incredible

[fruey]

Nobody has anything to say, and yet good articles get rejected all the time.

Just proves that really, people are trying to be funny all the time rather than actually submitting elightened comment on the subject at hand. You can't be funny about an Apache developer, so other than bowing down and saying you're not worthy... nothing much to post is there?

Pc Name?

[Bill, Shooter of Bul]

Someone should ask him if any one from the apache Nation has ever contacted them. Are they aware of the product? Do they aprove or disprove of the use of the name? I understnad the historical reason for naming in "a patchy server", but still they should have been consulted. I'm not trying to be a PC Enforcer, but considering that we've pretty much stolen everything they've ever had, it would be nice to avoid using their name in a way they didn't apporve of.

The Yavapai-Apache Nation is Running Apache

[CedgeS]

From Netcraft survey for The Yavapai-Apache Nation website:

The site

www.yavapai-apache-nation.com [yavapai-ap...nation.com] is running Apache/1.3.29 (Unix) PHP/4.3.3 mod_perl/1.29 on Linux

Netcraft's never recorded it running anything else.

The Yavapai-Apache site prominantly features a link to their hosting ISP, Wild Apache Internet Service [wildapache.net], which advertised on its front page that they use apache:

Much better link

To the "sinister keiretsu" comment on NTK here [ntk.net]

For the hard of thinking, Andover=OSDN=Slashdot's evil overlords.

Apache is a community

[chip33550336]

I wish they would refer to the Apache httpd webserver as the Apache Httpd webserver. There are many more projects under the Apache brand that are not an httpd server.

Nice guy

The interview was pretty interesting, and Ken replied with humor and sense to an ample range of questions, from technical to social related to the apache project and developement team.

Besides, once the interview finished, Ken stood around to reply questions that had been left on the queue... and he still is around!

A very interesting way to look inside a very successful project like Apache... whatch the interview log on www.slashnet.org.

Do you know where exactly I can get the interview log from? Thanks in advance.
