Hi,

thanks to my friend Frank Sattelberger I got access to a site where I could set up a demo for wit:

http://grmso.net:8090

Couple of notes wrt why I work on another git web interface compared with Kay's work:

* I was already experimenting and implementing for a couple of days when
Kay's tool was first announced and I didn't want to throw away my
feature set
* the Web API: wit has a different philosophy when it comes to URIs: The
stable URI mapping should translate in a straightforward fashion to
git: /blob/<sha1> /tree/<sha1>, /tree/<sha>/diff/<sha1>, etc.; no URL
parameters
* wit is more of a git view right now: it only uses git and tries to
stay close to the repository browsing paradigm (see the API issue above)
* wit provides tarballs and patches but that's an easy one for Kay
* wit looks uglier but that will hopefully change soon ;-)
* I'm a not a Perl guy
I'm still seeking feedback ;-)
Greetings,
			Christian
