Version 1.1 of the scgi package is now available from:
  http://www.mems-exchange.org/software/scgi/

The SCGI protocol is a replacement for the Common Gateway Interface
(CGI) protocol.  It is a standard for applications to interface with
HTTP servers.  It is similar to FastCGI but is designed to be easier to
implement.

Included in this package is mod_scgi, an Apache module that implements
the client side of the protocol.  There is also a a Python package
called "scgi" which implements the server side of the protocol.

Changes in version 1.1
----------------------

    * Pass HTTP/1.1 request headers to SCGI servers.

    * Try to make passfd compile on OpenBSD and older versions of
      Solaris.

    * Implement graceful restart for scgi_server.py.
