Suggestions for a Gemini server

Hi all,

I've been running molly-brown for some time and I really like its
flexibility when it comes to handling funky mime types. I've been hosting
a gemini mirror to textfiles.com for a while and lot of these files have random
file extensions but they are actually all plain text files. With molly, I
can define mime types like this:

[MimeOverrides]
"atom.xml$" = "application/atom+xml"
"rss.xml$" = "application/rss+xml"
".$" = "text/plain"
".gmi$" = "text/gemini"
".tgz$" = "application/gzip"
".zip$" = "application/zip"
".tar.gz$" = "application/gzip"


That way anything that isn't defined is automatically assumed to be
"text/plain" which works great for me.

I tried using gmnisrv and it has some wonderful features like certificate
generation and the ability to create multiple capsules however, custom
mime types must be managed manually which means that I would probably need
to rename every file in the textfiles collection to .txt or .gmi which I
really don't want to do.

I'm looking for suggestions for a server that can give me all of these
functions together in one place. Thanks!
