+1 for scgi support :)

some docs:

http://arsdnet.net/web.d/cgi.d.html
The file cgi.d in there is my base library for web apps.
Previously, it spoke regular CGI, FastCGI (with help
from a C lib) and HTTP (with help from the netman.d
and httpd.d files in that github).
Now, in addition to those options, it also speaks
SCGI - all by itself - and it can speak http without
needing helper modules.
The new embedded http server should work on all
platforms too, not just linux like the old one, but
I haven't tested it yet.
This finishes out all the major web app interfaces
that I'm aware of.
To use them, you write your app with a GenericMain
and always communicate through the Cgi object it
passes you.
===
import arsd.cgi;
void hello(Cgi cgi) {
cgi.write("Hello, world! " ~ cgi.request("name") ~ "\n");
}
mixin GenericMain!hello;
===
And then compile:
dmd hello.d arsd/cgi.d # builds a CGI binary
dmd hello.d arsd/cgi.d -version=fastcgi # FastCGI. needs
libfcgi C lib
dmd hello.d arsd/cgi.d -version=scgi # SCGI
dmd hello.d arsd/cgi.d -version=embedded_httpd # built-in http
server
The API is the same with all four options.
With cgi or fastcgi, you put the binary where your web
server can run it.
With scgi and embedded_httpd, you run the binary. It
persists as an application server. On the command line,
you can say use the option "--port 5000" for example
to change the listening tcp port.
The default for httpd right now is 8085. The default
for scgi is 4000.
Well, I don't have much else to say, but since it
now does all four of the big interfaces easily,
I thought I'd say something here.
If you're interested in web programming with D,
this will lay the foundation for you.
