  Apache HTTP Server - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Apache HTTP Server is developed and maintained by an open community of developers under the auspices of the Apache Software Foundation.
However, in the FAQ on the server's official site, it is stated: "The name 'Apache' was chosen from respect for the Native American Indian tribe of Apache (Indé), well-known for their superior skills in warfare strategy and their inexhaustible endurance".
Apache is redistributed as part of various proprietary packages, e.g., the Oracle database or the IBM WebSphere application server.

The Apaches are a tribe of Native Americans, aboriginal inhabitants of North America, who speak an Athabascan language.
The major Apache groups include the Jicarilla and Mescalero of New Mexico, the Chiricahua of the Arizona-New Mexico border area, and the Western Apache of Arizona.
The Chiricahua Apaches were removed from their reservation in 1876 and sent to prison in 1886.

 Merrion v. Jicarilla Apache Tribe   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The question presented in these cases is whether, after a tribe has granted nonmembers access to its reservation on specified terms and conditions to engage in an economic venture of mutual benefit, the tribe may impose a tax on the nonmembers' share of benefits derived from the venture.
Because the Tribe retains all inherent attributes of sovereignty that have not been divested by the Federal Government, the proper inference from silence on this point is that the sovereign power to tax remains intact.
Indeed, when the Tribe attempted to introduce at trial evidence of the services it had provided to establish this relationship, the District Court rejected this evidence upon petitioners' objection that such evidence was irrelevant to their challenge.

 Black Science Forum (BSF): Apache_Tribe   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Apache (apparently from the Zuni name, = "enemy," given to the Navaho Indians) is the collective name given to several culturally related tribes of Native Americans, aboriginal inhabitants of North America, who speak a Southern Athabaskan language.
The final surrender of the tribe took place in 1886, when the Chiricahuas, the division involved, were deported to Florida and Alabama, where they underwent military imprisonment.
Apache children were taken for adoption by white Americans in programs similar in nature to those involving the Stolen Generation of Australia.

The Tribe also requested that we waive the interest accumulated on the remainder of the disallowance after applying credit for depreciation or use allowance and, at an earlier stage in the proceedings, asked that we waive the entire disallowance.

 Tumacacori NHP: The Apache
The Apache people and culture are an integral part of the history of the Pimeria Alta (Upper Pima land).
From a very young age, Apache boys and girls started learning the different plants and animals and their uses as they worked alongside their mothers gathering and preparing food and doing daily camp chores.
Since the survival of their own people was most important, the Apaches often raided the villages of the agricultural tribes when their hunting and gathering efforts were not sufficient.

 No. 01-1067: United States v. White Mountain Apache Tribe - Petition   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Both the Tribe and the United States in their briefs agree that the 1960 Act creates a "trust."7 The statute itself states that the land and "improvements thereon" are held "in trust" for the Tribe.
The government argued that the Tribe's future interest was contingent and that the common law of property as reflected in sections 188, 189, and 195 of the Restatement (First) of the Law of Property bars the Tribe's claim for monetary damages.
The 1960 Act merely states that Fort Apache shall be held by the government in trust for the White Mountain Apache Tribe, "subject to the right of the Secretary of the Interior to use any part of the land and improvements for administrative or school purposes for as long as they are needed.

 FORT APACHE INDIAN RESERVATION, WHITE MOUNTAIN APACHE TRIBE, ARIZONA   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
In our last two annual reports we called attention to the situation of this tribe, their eager desire for peace, their starving condition, and the opinion of the Indian agents and Army officers, that, with means to feed and clothe them, they could be kept at peace.
The attempt to defeat it by the arrest of Indians upon the reservation who have made peace, for acts alleged to have been committed in time of war, should be resisted, otherwise the act of the Government upon whose faith their surrender is made becomes one of mere treachery.
That knowledge of Apache forefathers has very clearly passed the test of time, and proven to be sound right up to the door step of the new millennium.
