Hi,

First thanks for working on gemini! I have been struggling with themodern web for a while, and finding this community makes me reallyhappy!

I would like to announce those two things:


	https://github.com/jackdoe/net-gemini  (made it today, so fresh out of the oven)  embeddable golang gemini server (similar to net/http)


  inspired by https://tildegit.org/solderpunk/molly-brown

  example usage:  gemini.HandleFunc("/example", func(w *gemini.Response, r *gemini.Request) {  if len(r.URL.RawQuery) == 0 {  w.SetStatus(gemini.StatusInput, "what is the answer to the ultimate question")  } else {  w.SetStatus(gemini.StatusSuccess, "text/gemini")  answer := r.URL.RawQuery  w.Write([]byte("HELLO: " + r.URL.Path + ", yes the answer is: " + answer))  }  })  log.Fatal(gemini.ListenAndServeTLS(":1965", "localhost.crt", "localhost.key"))

  it is easy to build dynamic content (as the example shows) without  resorting to CGI due to go's setuid limitation.


	gemini://berserk.red  shell + web/gemini/finger hosting


  for example:    gemini://berserk.red/~jack

  I have a small hosting for my friends on https://berserk.red we use  it for talk(1) and other things. This is just to showcase usage of  net-gemini, and I used it to test and develop the api.
