well, thanks for all responses ...
first, sorry for my poor english....

Why another web server?:
Xavante is a good one but its not extensible and doesnt support
plugins and also uses cgi gateway, come on cgi is slow!
So, im working in a very simple but configurable server who runs over
luasocket and copas.
im trying to work with a lua pages philosophy - a good point to make
it is...it will host a database, like java does.
All data will be stored in a big table or several chained tables so
all data will be available for each request, and then its
"persistence".

So we got "mexerica" (web server)  "no name" (presistence database)
"gnutella3" (off-system library)

i intent to make something like this in lua
http://jsdb.sourceforge.net/demo.html (persistence)

all responses are well come! ...
