 I did the same...commented out the debug stuff. Nice project!  I can
 see how this would be immensely useful on a school server where
 books/media have to be served outside of a course, like a local
 public library.

 cheers,

Sayamindu,

I figured out how to set up Pathagar and get it running.  I'm going to
be writing it up in my book.
