At this point the logging system is temporal. It should be rewritten in the
same way of the rest of cherokee, I mean, module based. We should have a
modules for syslog, a module for direct file writting, and so on.
At the begging, I chose the syslog method cuz it's the standard and it has a
good performance. In the current Cherokee version, it's hardcoded.. but it
should be fixed soon. :-)

No, there's a mini tutorial in the "doc" directory.
It's not very extensive.. I know.. but it's better than nothing %-)
It's well known... we all hate write down documentation. '';)

Ummm... you're right.
I didn't think about upload it to the website.
I'm going to do it today :))

The "timeout" configuration entry do it in the general case. But well, add a
new timeout for keepalive iterations looks ok. I've added it to the TODO
file. :-)

It's implemented but has not a configuration entry (what a silly mistake!)
The MAX_KEEP_ALIVE constant (common.h) defines it. :-)
echo "Export max keep alive iterations to config file" >> TODO

Eh eh.. good question ';-)
It should be the next new feature of Cherokee. I was working on it, reading
php code, and trying to understand the painful API of PHP... but without a
real result (working php handler) until now. I'm going to continue working
on it. It's a very important feature that Cherokee should has ASAP. :-)
BTW, there're people thinking about implement a WebWare [1] handler for
Cherokee. :-))
