[dbohdan] 2014-10-12: Interesting! I assume the the name is a reference to [Perl]'s [http://www.perldancer.org/%|%Dancer]. It would be nice if the developer added a more detailed overview of this framework to the [web framework] comparison matrix.

[xan] 2014-10-12: It sure is named after Dancer!  However, one of the big draws of tanzer is that it doesn't expect a request handler to read the entire request nor response in one single go, which should hopefully allow for much better performing web applications without standing in one's way much.

[Janka] 2014-12-14: Seems the `git clone http://tanzer.io/git/tanzer.git` is broken. It loads half an archive, then

[xan] Re: [Janka]: What appears to have happened is that cgit (http://git.zx2c4.com/cgit/) was causing problems due to objects in its own cache being inconsistent with the state of the authoritative repository after I had ran 'git gc' on it.  I've also fixed a small (but consequently problematic) typo in lib/tanzer/cgi/handler.tcl which caused problems with CGI responses containing no data.  [SteveR] has kindly tested 'git clone' with multiple concurrent clients to stress test this, and everything works well now.  Thanks for bringing this to my attention; please don't hesitate to send me an email or stick around in the future.
