Nginx to serve CGI

Hello,

Igor, could you re-evaluate the possibility of piping through CGI  
from nginx? There are still lots of legacy apps that are and will  
stay written in CGI. And I wouldn't want to throw in apache just for  
that. I couldn't get the perl dispatcher to work correctly, either.

I know it was a security decision, but I've heard that it can be made  
secure with correct users and rights.

I'm willing to dig up the discussion I had about it if you're  
interested.

Ystävällisin terveisin,
