Araneida: a free Common Lisp-based web server

Araneida is a small extensible Common Lisp web server for SBCL, originally written as a project to learn CL, but these days maintained because cl-http is not free. It powers CLiki, the Common Lisp Wiki.

Content is provided by exporting URL handlers to cover parts of the server URL space. A handler is a CL object that takes a 'request' as argument and eventually prints out a web page on the stream associated with that request. See e.g. http://cvs.telent.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/araneida/doc/example.lisp

While it can be used as a standalone web server, it's "optimized" to live behind an appropriately-configured Apache proxy server.
