OK Tim. With the way you respect this guy, and the way I respect you, there
is nothing left to say!
Cordially,

The
HTTP headers coming from Wikipedia server are not
consistnet with this
claim, and show that WIkipedia uses Apache. I've also noticed that Tim
Starling has contributed to Apache (and not Lighhttpd) suggesting some
bug
fixes which could help Wikimedia wikis run
smoother. So here is the
question: Which web server is Wikimedia really using? And if it is not
Lighhttpd, would somebody mind if I try to tell Lighttpd guys remove
that
false claim from their pages?
We use both. The author of lighttpd, Jan Kneschke, is a nice guy, we've
met him both on IRC and in real life (at Wikimania 2005). He has often
worked with us directly to debug problems we've had with lighttpd on the
site. I can't say the same for any Apache developer. I have no problem
with his use of our name.
