freenginx is an HTTP and reverse proxy server written in C, which the project describes as an effort to preserve free and open development of nginx. Its source lives in a Mercurial repository, mirrored on GitHub, and the project publishes Windows binaries alongside the source. The server runs as a master process with worker processes, and support runs through mailing lists.
Worth knowing
The project publishes its releases on its own news page rather than through GitHub releases, and it maintains a stable line alongside a mainline line.
