I've made a "sort of a" web server for MOO: MOO/HTTPD.  It will allow people to 
access readable properties on the WWW Utilities object, and also verbs in a 
CGI-script-like manner.  I do not have the CGI interface complete, and it 
currently supports only verbs that run with no input (i.e.: POST is the exact 
same thing as GET so far).  It only has one directory, the root, and binary 
files such as images need to be stored somewhere else.  It does work, however.

You do not have to put a .html suffix on the properties on the MOO, since the 
parser automatically removes that.  I use .moo as a suffix for MOO verbs in the 
URL, but not for the actual verb, since it removes that too.

I hope to find enough time to accept script input and make directories soon.

Anyone else who wants a copy, ask me: I've sent the code to Chris.

Anyone else who wants to help me program it is more than welcome. ;)

For an example, see http://reality.cs.umn.edu:6464 (currently down due to 
NetBSD/amiga + LambdaMOO + NCSA httpd instability, but back up or changing 
location soon).
