Bug#742721: ITP: mathopd -- Very small, yet very fast HTTP server



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

   Package name: mathopd
        Version: 1.5p8
Upstream Author: Michiel Boland <michiel@boland.org>
            URL: http://www.mathopd.org/

    Description: Very small, yet very fast HTTP server

Mathopd is a very small, yet very fast HTTP server for UN*X systems.

Mathopd supports useful features of HTTP/1.1, such as persistent connections,
partial responses and pipelining. It does not support things like content
negotation. The latest version of the software (1.5) also supports CGI/1.1.

Mathopd was designed specifically to run as a single process, and to never grow
in size. When this software was first written (early 1996) this is something
that other HTTP servers were not very good at.

Mathopd was removed from debian, because it wasn't maintained
and I would really like it back in debian.

I'm prepared to maintain it.
Package is on https://mentors.debian.net/package/mathopd.
