So, a bit off topic, but is anyone using Lua for web application backends? For example Lua with nginx or mod_lua for apache? I've used Lua with mod_lua, and have been very happy with the result.

It's called Sailor http://sailorproject.org http://sailorproject.org I also wrote a blog post with a comparison of different frameworks: http://lua.space/webdev/the-best-lua-web-frameworks http://lua.space/webdev/the-best-lua-web-frameworks
