Slimserver is awesome, but is a perl-based self-contained webserver with 
on-the-fly format conversion.

Would be interesting to see something like that integrated with mythweb, 
though...  Would also make video streaming a lot easier.  Would probably 
end up being better served as a separate project with a mythweb plugin 
for it (like I hope mythstream will eventually be, though this could 
supersede mythstream in functionality)
