List of AMP packages (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
SAMP (Sun Web Stack) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
MAMP (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

These articles are unsourced (or sourced only to a commercial variant of no established notability in the case of MAMP) and warrant very little more than a sentence or two in a "variants" section of LAMP (software bundle), the parent article for the vastly better-known term. Keeping these forked just splits effort across four pages where the optimal approach would be one higher-quality work. Merge was undone without comment by Neustradamus (talk · contribs).

  • Mixed
    • Keep WAMP Notable, as the Microsoft world's contrast to the better-known LAMP.
    • DeleteMerge SAMP & MAMP though - these aren't sufficiently common enough, WP:N enough, or different enough to LAMP to justify them as separate articles. MAMP is no different to any other generic-Unix-AMP these days.
    • Keep & improve List of AMP packages This is a poor article that's not much better than a simple list, and that's of little more value than a simple web search. However the topic is important: we need an article that gives overall coverage of AMP-hosting with just this scope. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:21, 8 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment What about FAMP? Is there a BAMP too? It's the FreeBSD equivalent for LAMP, but on a different non-Linux unix. I've actually used "FAMP", but never called it that - we always referred to it as LAMP just the same, even though we knew the difference. As a term rather than a concept, it seems to have little or no currency. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:29, 8 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
