The Apache Software Foundation provides support for the Apache community of open-source software projects. The Apache projects are characterized by a collaborative, consensus based development process, an open and pragmatic software license, and a desire to create high quality software that leads the way in its field. We consider ourselves not simply a group of projects sharing a server, but rather a community of developers and users.

You are invited to participate in The Apache Software Foundation. We welcome contributions in many forms. Our membership consists of those individuals who have demonstrated a commitment to collaborative open-source software development through sustained participation and contributions within the Foundation's projects.

Below we feature a few of the many Apache projects.

Gump

http://jakarta.apache.org/gump/ Gump is a social experiment. The primary goal of Gump is to get diverse projects to communicate early and often about integration, dependencies, and versioning management. While not yet an official Apache project, this is a place where some interesting and innovative work is under way.

Apache HTTP Test Project

http://httpd.apache.org/test/ The Apache HTTP Test Project has two components: a perl-centric regression testing framework originally designed for the mod_perl project, but now expanded for general HTTP testing, and a profile-driven HTTP load tester called Flood.

Anakia

http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/anakia.html For our XML to HTML transformations used to generate this website, we use Anakia, which is built on the Velocity Template Engine. Anakia is a great tool for static web sites, while Velocity permits anyone to use a simple yet powerful template language to reference objects defined in Java code.
