Does it mean one will be able to use it with webservers like Cherokee, nginx...?

Right now, the only WAI backends I'm aware of are the two I've written: SimpleServer and CGI. Assuming Cherokee and nginx support CGI, then yes, you could deploy there. That said, I intend to port hack-handler-fastcgi to WAI in the not-too-distant future. If anyone needs it sooner, just send me an e-mail, it will probably take very little time to port since it was simply a layer on top of hack-handler-cgi. Of course, there's a whole range of WAI backends that are possible. SimpleServer is not that great a production server, so I wouldn't mind getting Hyena or Happserver working with WAI. Then there are protocols like SCGI available as well. If we get really adventurous, we could aim for a mod_haskell. Michael
