Status of comanche

[Dani <ri...@esi.us.es>]

Hello,

It seems I got unsusbscribed from the list, so I missed many messages. I will
have to look at it.

Some comments:

About the Apache NT/conf files in registry:
I thing as Marc said that it is a bad idea. MS itself did that with IIS 3.0
and then switched to Sever Configuration Metafiles, outside the registry,
which just seems to be a binary counterpart of apache .conf files. At least
that what I seem to recall from some discussion in new-httpd or usenet.

About comanche: I did not want to say anything until I have useable code, but
if people is interested or have any suggestions to do, I am working in the
new version of Comanche. It is in its very infancy (it is a rewrite in incr
tcl) but as the earlier version it will run on Windows and Unix (I have some
requests for some people who would like to use it in a Mac and upload the
files to their Linux machine, so it will also run on Macs! :-) an has some
nice surprises.

What I would like to know is what features will people like to see on it, so
I and other people working on similar projects can get ideas. I already
received some by e-mail, but would like to know the opinion of people here.

Regards

Daniel

For some sites, it might be useful to support running it on a different
port (if that's relevant.) This will allow folks like us to restrict access
to localhost, and use an ssh tunnel through the firewall to connect to it.
I do this with Dynamo's java server now.
