to modjavascript discuss
I know modjavascript is an apache module but I was wondering if there
could be the possibility of using this code, suitably modified, via
fastcgi instead of being built as a module?

If so then it could be (safely) used with apache worker mpm and
lighttpd, and generally use less memory on smaller systems.

hey markc. Sorry I missed your message. My plan is to create an API
which isn't too apache specific so that handlers are portable between
different containers. I have the basics of a servlet that uses rhino
to run the js, but a fastcgi and/or scgi container would be cool as
well. It would be easy to prototype this in a high level language
first (I know peel has spidermonkey bindings) and then port it to c
later (the c version could probably share code with modjavascript).

At the moment I'm struggling to find time for this. If you're
interested in working on it, then set up a project and I might
contribute something.

Hope that helps

Tom
