Having had some prior experience in tackling this problem (eg, CGI::Portable), I will endeavour to work on / help with the Perl 6 analogy to HTTP::Request/Response, so to replace the use of corresponding aspects of CGI.pm.
I really like this idea. I was actually working on a threaded HTTP server in Perl that used that exact approach. The idea was that you could write a HTTP::Server::Threaded::Handler implementation; this could easily work for CGI as well. I can't test my code, since my Pugs installation is currently broken (I've been working on it from work, and I'm trying to get everything working in Cygwin right now). However, I've posted my code at this URL: http://oss.snoyman.com/HTTP-Server-Threaded.tar.gz As a note to Audrey: This is what I was asking about threads for; I added the async statement, but haven't tested it.
