I know little about NWS, I see it's still available from sourceforge,
but
the latest release (3.3) was published in 2000, quite long before I
started to actively maintain Rivet in 2007.
Naturally as long as NWS is a module for the Apache Webserver
(1.x? ASF rolled out 2.0 in 2000) with a set of Tcl commands you may
write some code to wrap mod_rivet's command set with the NWS syntax.
Still I'm reading the list of features from http://wiki.tcl.tk/1366 :
"per-uid dpopen database files, random and sequential files,
HTML page inclusion, logging, procedure libraries, random numbers,
date and time functions, calculations of server hits per hour,
counter systems for statistics, improved debugging,
file cataloging and a new forms library"
and I think not everything can be easily reduced to a syntax wrapper.
Some of them (server hits per hour) probably exploited some Apache
1.x feature that could not be available on the 2.2/2.4 series
The only suggestion I can come up is to build rivet avoiding to
export the ::rivet namespace: (--disable-import-rivet-commands)
and use their fully qualified names to avoid confusion with the NWS
compatibility layer.

P.S. Please subscribe to rivet-dev to continue the discussion, the
traffic is acceptable and you may have more hints about rivet.

Hi,
I have a number of sites that are running Neowebscript on our apache
servers (freebsd) and wanted to look at migrating these to rivet. The
clients are quite happy with the current system and I have hardened
the server as best we can, but would like some pointers on this and
did anyone else have any issues with migration?
Regards
John
