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.

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.

Apache Harmony is now a top-level project of the Apache Software Foundation.

On October 25th, the Board of Directors voted to make Apache Harmony a top-level project,

and on October 29th, the Apache Incubator PMC voted to graduate Harmony from the Apache Incubator,

having satisfied the Incubator's requirements for community governance and IP oversight.

The ASF provides the infrastructure for the projects - the mailing lists, code repositories, bug tracking systems, etc.

While all of the administrative effort is currently through unpaid volunteers, we need financial assistance to purchase bandwidth and keep our servers running.
By sponsoring the ASF you show your support for our mission and help sustain a vibrant organization.
