Here is a list of HTTP servers for Windows CE-based platforms I know:
1) vxWeb

2) AppWeb HTTP embedded server

By the way, for all of you interested, here is a very good explanation
what are Windows CE, Windows Mobile, Pocket PC and Smarphone platforms:

While all these are possible candidates, I think I agree with the Idea
of building a CORE Component set first, and then applying it to the
different OS's on a as-needed basis.<br>
<br>
How much about these different OS's will be required to document do you
think for development purposes, can we maybe start up a Basic list of
capabilities required by each and go from there?<br>

I have not even thought about such possibility.
Wouldn't be PostgreSQL too heavy for mobile devices?
I don't know yet much of PostgreSQL internals, so I'm not sure if
it is possible to cut down the engine to achive as best performance as
possible.
I think it would be simplier to add generic spatial functionality to
SQLite engine. There is a very wide interest in such features in SQLite
so I'm quite sure we could count on pretty good response from the
community and even design/coding/testing support.
Most of ideas of spatial features in SQLite were proposed by Noel
Frankinet from GISTEK (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.gistek.net">http://www.gistek.net</a>, I used to work with Noel
for a while and I remember his interests in Open Source. He also
released some of his projects as OSS).
Here is a list of threads about spatial features in SQLite:
