Wow! This is such great news!! As for running Owin applications with Unix HTTP servers, I've developed Fos<http://github.com/mzabani/Fos> on a very permissive license and a focus on good documentation and running with Mono on *nix. I would very much love getting contributions on this, because my spare time is running lower these days.
Hope it helps, Marcelo.
