Yahoo, Apache, Ebay, Amazon, Netscape Celebrate 10 Year Anniversaries

tagish writes "Roy Fielding writes on the Apache dev mailing list: 10 years ago today, the Apache Group decloaked with the creation of the new-httpd archive and initial accounts on hyperreal.org. I had the lucky timing of having the first message archived on the list, though we had actually been talking about what to do for at least a week before that (sadly, without any archives)." At the same time, Mike Porter simply writes "Yahoo celebrates its tenth anniversary on March 2nd." News about some other anniversaries available via an MSNBC article.

Characteristics of a Ten Year Old

[NicksMyName]

Just looked for the charactertics of a ten year old and found a good list here Ones that seem to apply to Apache as a ten year old:

"Care of clothes/room at dismal low"

"Responsive to anger often violent and immediate"

"Will accept bathing schedule if it doesn't interfere with activities"

"Fears at a low ebb"

"Not yet aware of when they are tired and need to go to bed"

"Humor is corny, sometimes smutty"

"Interest span still somewhat short"

"Needs certain amount of liberty to move around"

"Concerned about fairness"

"Greatest difficulties in relation to siblings "

"Responsive to anger often violent and immediate"

Ones that may not apply:

"Still exhibits admiration for adults, teachers"

"Still needs considerable amount of supervision to get things done, needs clues to organization"

"Enjoys outdoor play activities, sports, collections, Cub Scouts, T.V., and video games" (well, except for the TV and Video Games)

"Enjoys listening to stories"

"Not necessarily a worker"

"Have sudden bursts of affection"

"Last age (for a while) when child goes happily on family outings"
