Mongrel: funky server

The [Mongrel](http://rubyforge.org/projects/mongrel/) web server project, in Ruby, by Zed Shaw, is taking shape. With some help from Luis Lavena, Zed’s making his lovely Mongrel run on win32, as a Windows service. The last mail I read at the mongrel-users mailing list had Zed oohing and aahing over the Ruby win32 library:

Otherwise it’s incredibly cool. It’s sad to say that Mongrel will soon have better win32 support than Unix.

Why [writes on Mongrel](http://redhanded.hobix.com/inspect/mongrelSGoingToKillWebrickGiveItAMonth.html), about an earlier release.

Bonus link: The [win32 category](http://raa.ruby-lang.org/cat.rhtml?category_major=Library;category_minor=Win32) at [RAA](http://raa.ruby-lang.org/), the Ruby Application Archive. And the [win32-service](http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/win32-service/) package, which lets you control Windows services, too.
