About -status page improvements

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I've started writing a munin ( like mrtg ) plugin for plotting server status.

It would be useful if the /about ( Server Info ) output would not change
structure - that's for future updates, so will not have to rewrite the
parsers. 

It would be extremely useful to have system command which would output
statistics like data transferred, connections, hits? so that http would not
have to be employed to fetch this data. 

Also data transferred, an option to see the number in its full version, not
humanized, as plotting transfer rates from that is pointless after a while.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

0.11.3

I would vote for /about in xml. Plus a theme based XSLT.

• Added labels: Component-Logic, Priority-Medium, Type-Enhancement, Usability

This feature has already landed in trunk (the upcoming Cherokee 0.98 release).
It supports requests such as:

/about/info/js
/about/info/py
/about/info/ruby
/about/info/php

Enjoy it!
