About
=====
Eris HTTPD is a part of Dirtbags Capture The Flag
(http://dirtbags.net/ctf/). As I was adding more and more patches
against fnord 1.10 (http://www.fefe.de/), I decided to fork fnord into
a new project. Fnord's author approved of the fork.

About The Name
==============
[Eris](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eris_(dwarf_planet%29)
is the most massive (heaviest) dwarf planet in the solar system.
It's heavier than Pluto!
Its discovery is what spurred astronomers to finally define the word "planet",
which resulted in Pluto being classified a dwarf planet.
Otherwise, we would have to count Eris as a tenth planet.
