Hello,

I would like to use Mason under FastCGI. I did a small experiment (http://github.com/melo/exp-mason-fcgi 
) and found some things that don't work that well when Mason runs  
outside Apache.

I'm preparing cleaned up patches to work around those issues.

Is this something that you would be interested on?

My current plan is:

  * create a FastCGIHandler class to hide all the FCGI specific code;
  * create a small distribution HTML::Mason::FastCGI that include the  
Handler and a startup script (like Catalyst has);
  * fix some issues with directory requests.

I also have a patch to implement $m->scall_next() (a call_next() that  
uses scomp()). Is this something that you would take?


Also, I see that the development is using SVN. For my personal  
purposes I created a git repo with a proper authors file. Not sure  
about two authors though (swartz == jswartz? sharkey == sharkey3?). If  
you like, I can also make the authors file available.

Bye,
