Re httpdn:
DSA has basically acked hosting it but it first needs to be converted into a
fcgi-like application. The live instance currently runs under mod_perl.
That said, I've an initial version of the redirector as a Plack application
that needs more testing on possible production configurations.
It requires inotify in order to pick up database updates, which is not
ideal, but at least it works.
I could push the branch to the public repository so that others can take a
look at it and play with it, if there's anyone interested.
Re cdn:
IIRC the main blocker was that it plays with DNS records and would be a bit
painful to have to support such a configuration in part due to DNSSEC.
I can't speak for DSA or cdn's maintainers, however.
