Hi, I just wanted to chime in on Alexander's (netchild@) mail and I fully agree. Looking at base we already have a lot of contrib and since we need to adapt each software project to our build framework a lot tends to get dated quickly and currently is so I don't see the benefit importing more at all. I would also like to highly advice against importing software which is considered dead upstream, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thttpd . If anything, something like https://github.com/emikulic/darkhttpd or similar which would be very easy to maintain and is active Best regards, Daniel
