[Chicken-users] request for repository access (new egg)

[$)]

Hi!
I am currently involved in a webapp development using fastcgi, sedna xml database and chicken. We do heavy file uploads (~100Mb) through POSTs; so a pretty high performance multipart/form-data parser is required. We discovered that the parser built on top of mime.egg has a poor performance for the task. I created a better performing parser that uses Apache libapreq ( http://httpd.apache.org/apreq/) internally. I want to share this code.

In order to create your extensions you will need access to this repository. Send an email to the Chicken Users mailing list and state:

• A brief description of the purpose of your extension

A highspeed multipart/form-data parser particullary suited for heavy file uploads through webforms. The parser core is a fast-running standards-complying Apache libapreq library. Parser fetches data through a user-provided callback thunk, so it can utilise various sources of data (however Scheme input port is not the fastest).

• The name you want to use for your extension

libapreq-mfd-parser

• The username you want to use to access the repository (unless you already have one).
