RFS: v8cgi



Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "v8cgi", for which I'm also
the upstream author.

v8cgi is a multi-purpose wrapper around V8 Javascript engine: it can
be used as a shell-scripting language/environment, CGI/FastCGI binary
or Apache module. It resembles Node.js, but comes with a somewhat
simplified and more synchronous interface paradigms - somewhat similar
to PHP. One of the design goals for this project is also a high
CommonJS compliancy
(http://wiki.commonjs.org/wiki/Implementations/v8cgi).

v8cgi also comes with a rich set of built-in modules, implemented
either in C++ or JS. These either wrap common libraries (sockets,
mysql, pgsql, gd, tls, ...) or provide features implemented from
scratch (websockets, http, session, unit testing, ...).

v8cgi itself is implemented in C++ and has libv8 as its only
dependency. It is developed at Google Code
(http://code.google.com/p/v8cgi/) under New BSD Licence. Ubuntu
packages are available from a Launchpad PPA
(https://launchpad.net/~ondras/+archive/v8cgi).


Thanks for your time!
Sincerely,
Ondrej Zara
