This is incomplete at this point, but there's a working example. I have to break off now and do some building work. You can find documentation and a zip file (currently it is Windows only, DMD2.026, and Phobos) at http://www.britseyeview.com/dcat/.

It works with Apache2, and uses the AJP13 protocol like Tomcat.

Interesting. Just as I was thinking of creating a web app in D.

What's the license?

Hmm, forgot about that stuff, BSD maybe - suggest one please.

I suggest Boost or zlib/libpng.

I realize there are legal subtleties in all these licenses. In your view, why is Boost better than BSD? Just curious.

By looking at the code, I've found a license. Not sure which license it is (looks a little BSD-like), but at least the terms are clear. Some (not all) modules start with this:

It's the zlib/libpng license, <http://opensource.org/licenses/zlib-license.php>

BSD requires all copies (including binary code) to carry a copy of the licence (i.e. in an about box, product documentation, etc). The Boost or zlib/libpng licences don't require binary copies to carry a copy of the licence. D runtime / Phobos use a combination of Boost and zlib/libpng (mainly libpng). Commercial companies can have issues with the requirements of the BSD licence.

Because with Boost you don't have to include the license when distributing a copy that is, as the license says, "machine-executable object code generated by a source language processor"
