Goanna and webserver

Goanna is used for the xmlrpc interface using fastcgi and apache. The website itself is based on Drupal and uses php. I also did some testing with lighttpd which also seems to work fine with goanna fastcgi and which is a lot faster and scales better http://origo.ethz.ch/index.php/Performance

First thoughts

Very interesting. Are you using Goanna as part of the software? There is no tag for it. What are you using to provide HTTPS communications?

External access will be available soon

There will be access to the API very soon. The API is split in an internal and external part, the internal part is very small and almost everything is also available externally. For external applications, login will be done with a per user key to prevent brute force password hacking attempts.

Client tools

I've already got my project page up!

I forgot to ask till, and maybe you know. is the XMLRPC accessible to external clients? Just thinking about the client tools domain. Actually it would nice to have a Eiffel framework API we could use for the purpose of developing tools (We developers only want more, more, more!)
