Being LAMP is a sign of a good project that probably will work out of the box.

Remember the P was for PHP or Perl.

Or Python.

You are right. Was it used for anything else? The m could be mysql or microsoft sql but rarely was anything aside from mysql (and postgres but the name never fit)
No, that was it. There were alternative acronyms of course, like WAMP (Windows, etc.) or LAPP (incorporating Postgres as you mentioned).
