Daniel,

I'm planning to have some degree of FastCGI support working within a
couple of weeks, but comprehensive support (within the limits of the project)
wouldn't necessarily be done till the end of October.

I will need to know pretty soon whether I should start committing bits of
the FastCGI support in the development trunk pre-split or not.

If you don't mind aiming for a feature freeze at the end of October, then
I think it should be ok to include the fast cgi support otherwise I should
hold it back.

Best regards,
