[erlang-questions] [ANN] misultin v0.7

[Loïc Hoguin]

misultin_req and misultin_ws are parameterized modules. Misultin does 
less than mochiweb, handling only GET and POST methods (and websockets). 
But it does it a little faster than mochiweb, and it's catching up in 
the number of features.

If you need performance or hate parameterized modules I'd advise to look 
at the alternative I am working on, cowboy: 
https://github.com/extend/cowboy - it's a work in progress and hasn't 
been used in production yet but this should happen in a month or two. It 
can process 1.5 times as many requests as misultin right now. Websocket 
and fast-cgi support are getting worked on and should be coming soon.
