In my opinion that is exactly the attitude that does not help *any* project.

Stefan,
 we are NOT backstabbing. I, for my part, am writing and criticizeing 
because I find Cherokee a project with a lot of potential. And mostly 
because I am NOT able to help you in a technical way. I just can't so 
what's the point of just throwing in our faces that we talk hot air. 
That's not true.

We are trying to point out how customers think 
and this discussion revealed a lot of good points and arguments. Like 
that with a greater popularity the supporters (devs, designers, writers,
 marketing people) will grow. But it won't grow if interested people 
think the project is dead. And that is most probably happening right 
now. As pointed out, there were no updates visible to end users. The 
community site is broken. The installation guide is plain wrong.

Yes,
 the best helmsmen stand ashore. But that means there must be someone in
 front, pushing Cherokee. But I have the feeling *you* backstab anyone 
who tries to constructively critize the project.

Guys seriously? Delegate? Please read the mailinglist.
In the time you all are writing this massive e-mail based on your own 
preconceptions, you could have already made the Debian package.


In Dutch we have a very famous saying: The best helmsmen stand ashore.
Which closely relate to: The best players are in the back seat.


I don't want to read a letter of these so called "discussions" and 
"backstabbing" on this mailinglist anymore until any of you take an effort in 
actually solving a problem (read: create the debian package).

If the reply of you will be: "Geez, Stefan, the documentation of Debian is so 
poorly written that a non-developer mortal user is unable to create a Debian 
package theirselves." Then my reply is:

apt-get install libtool automake gcc git
git clone https://github.com/cherokee/webserver.git
cd webserver
git submodule init
git submodule update
./autogen.sh --prefix=/opt/cherokee
make
make install


Your Cherokee webserver is now nicely installed outside your distro's reach. 
And can be started with via rc.local using:

/opt/cherokee/sbin/cherokee -d


...and if the above is all too difficult for users of the "greatest webserver 
platform" why not place a demand for a recent git based Cherokee package at the 
Debian bugtracker, like any user of a different distribution would do?


Stefan
