FWIW, Peter, I also have a mini-framework I've been meaning to eggify.
I wonder how many of us have rolled their own?

It would be nice to consider a WSGI-like layer for Chicken that would
encourage decoupling between protocol implementations (HTTP, SCGI,
CGI, etc.) and application frameworks. My framework borrows somewhat
from the WSGI approach, though I only have an SCGI connector at this
point.

Perhaps it will be a sign of Chicken's maturity if it begins to suffer
from the "too many Web frameworks problem" that Python encountered a
few years ago. :-)
