CGI Handler for Asp.Net

Probably not many people needs CGIs nowadays, but when it comes to integrating some legacy code it might be handy until you rewrite it. That's exactly what happened to me. I ended up with some legacy CGIs and needed to have integration on my new Asp.Net C# code.

However when I looked into .Net hosting environment I could not find a handler to run CGIs. (See this post http://forums.asp.net/t/1162628.aspx) In the end I wrote one myself. Altough later opened a project on Codeplex, never found the time properly rewrite the code and make a proper release: http://www.codeplex.com/CgiHandler

BTW, Codeplex is all good but TFS access annoys me sometimes. Maybe I carry on with Google Code later: http://zeealpha.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/csharp/CGIHandler/
