[Xitami] Xitami/5 - new project announcement

The console-version-only gets my vote too. One thing I would add if anything
would be a debug switch (maybe "xidos32 -debug" for instance?) that
summarises in real time what the hell it's doing! (obviously not meant for
production environments - but great for fault finding on a test bed).
"Opening up port 80 for this, 81 for this, couldn't open 81 - already in
use, 81.81.81.81 requested / - return code 200, 81.81.81.82 requested
/something.htm - return code 404, etc"

The last time I ever used the GUI was under Windows 3.1! Never really looked
at it since. Come to think of it, it was around that time that I last used
the web-based interface too! (I just don't like admin panels diddling around
with carefully constructed config files).

The only other thing I would change would be making it easier (or better
documented?) to kill the /admin page (I ended up just #'ing out the xiadmin
WSX agent line - better ways of doing this?). But I really am just
nit-picking now..


Cheers,
Stuart

Hi Marc,

This feedback is great.  I'm collecting pertinent points on the wiki.
Feel free to add more.  No firm promises, but it would be good to
collect the strongest features of the old Xitami into the new
architecture and get back to regular releases of the product.

Can I confirm that people are generally happy with a plain vanilla
binary for Windows, i.e. the console version?  Making win32-specific
services and GUIs is a lot of work.

-Pieter
