######### REGISTRATION DETAILS ######### 

Full Name:
----------
  Mini http server: w3server

System Group Name:
-----------------
  w3server

Type:
-----
  non-GNU software & documentation

License:
-------- 
  GNU General Public License V2 or later

Description:
------------
  This is yet another http server, written originally as an
assignment in a computer networks class at uni.
It is written in C, uses multi-threading and seemed quite stable
and, prior to all, it is small (compiles in 2 seconds).
It does, to my knowledge, not support full http 1.0, but
it may be useful for other projects which just need a minimal 
http server and/or for educational purposes.
It was tested on an older Solaris and on a current 
GNU/Linux system (Gentoo using Kernel 2.6.15 and gcc 3.3.6).
The compiler complains about a few warnings which I am willing to fix if the
program will be used by anyone. Apart from that, there is no active
development since it was written in 2000. I just never got along to
submitting it to sourceforge or savannah.

The source package is here:
http://www.cvgpr.uni-mannheim.de/gosch/software/w3server.tar.gz


The license is GPL version 2.

Other Software Required:
------------------------
  Dependencies: 
- libfl from Flex
- pthreads library
