I spoke to JonB during Tirex development and that was one of the ideas 
he had as well. Either FastCGI, or at least put all the relevant stuff 
in a library so that when doing a "native" module for whatever web 
server you want to use, you just have to glue together a few library calls.

But Stefan, you are of course welcome to modify your mod_tile version to 
talk to Tirex directly. The protocol is really most simple, you just 
have to send one UDP message and wait for an answer.

Bye
Frederik
