Obsoleted? Where did you read that?

Stephen Pair isn't active these days in Squeak so I have in practice
taken over maintainership of KomHttpServer - and I should probably
change the SM entry to reflect that (just listed as co-maintainer right
now).

KomHttpServer will most probably be around, the code is pretty good and
I have just recently made some performance profiling on it and have a
few things in the pipeline.

I haven't looked at Swazoo myself so I have no idea if there would be a
point in merging with it.

Hehe, a sidenote - yesterday our server running three Tomcat apps
started to crawl. Memory is leaking somehow so we had to restart them,
and this is on Debian so I don't think the OS is at fault.

But Java apps can be made stable of course - it is just that my personal
experience shows that Squeak apps are even more stable and require less
resources. Again, just my *personal* experience, no point in arguing it.
