I'm a bit familiar with boa, using it on an embedded system. I have no
idea about options and can't really judge it at all. Mostly asked
because maybe I could consider switching to nostromo if you had any
convincing arguments over other similar webservers (like boa). ;)

Please note that the source tarball is tainted by both CVS directories
and binaries, and thus likely needs to be repackaged for
DFSG-cleanliness.

I'd also like to request that you please mention both "nostromo" and
"nhttpd" in the package description to make it easy to find. Apparently
both names are in use...

Sorry for not having something more valueable then nitpicking to offer.
