Early this month I haven't been very productive in the open source world, mostly because of the university projects and the exams that followed. Now it's over I've decided to take the time to fix that, and it's a pleasure to be finally able to get back to FOSS development, and my electronics hobby ;)

So today I'm proud to announce the fruit of my efforts, and a new project :)

Lately I have been trying to use Loggerhead, a simple Bazaar repository viewer which is developed at Launchpad. Bazaar itself is the source code manager behind all the Launchpad projects.

So I needed to serve Loggerhead behind the Cherokee server; but unfortunately, it is not very friendly to non-Apache servers. It runs primarily in WSGI mode (interpreter embedded into the web server). One of Cherokee's principles is to be lightweight, and therefore it does not support WSGI. So the only option left is to run it standalone and proxy it through Cherokee, which is slow and overall not very good.

Today I tried to get the support I needed myself, and I have found a solution.
