Ah, I was thinking something similar (re httpd) when reading the
original rename proposal, but forgot about the contention on the
"apache" name itself. :)

While I think a rename would be nice, to avoid confusion that would
also imply renaming at least also pathnames (/etc/apache2/,
/usr/lib/apache2/, /usr/share/apache2/, /usr/lib/include/apache2/),
and package names (libapache2-mod-*, *-apache2), which seems like
some work. So better have a good name before embarking on this kind
of change (which I'd applaud TBH).

Thanks,
