Thank you very much for the reply. II like Smaltalk very much but I
don't have much experience with Comanche and Squeak. (I did my
previous work in WisualWorks but I'd like to use something open-source
now.) Do you think I can use Comanche and Squeak to write a server for
real-world use that provides dynamic content without any other
software (Apache etc...)?

I am not a troll, I just honestly don't know and I'd ve very unhappy,
if I found out, after debugging the server at home, that it has
problems serving moderately busy real-world site.

Another question: Do I understand correctly that Comanche request are
not "forked"and are handled one-after-another? E.g. while I am
accessing my database to create a Response for one request, I can be
certain that another Request cannot mess up my database while I am
doing this? (Because this is what i want.)
