Hi,

	I've been doing a bit of research in this area .... here are some 
other things I found interesting:

	[1] http://openpsp.org - Perl only web server
	[2] Networking in Perl - Lincoln Stein's masterpiece book on Perl 
	    servers - lots of server flavours: pre-forked threaded
	[3] SpeedyCGI - pre-forking Perl daemons [?]
		
	Unfortunately, none of these things 'fit the bill' for me 
completely ... I need a pre-forking, light weight, pure Perl, HTTP daemon 
that can do SSL, with GZIP compression.

	All the bits seem to be there ... but not together in one place.
