Nokia today announced a more product oriented mobile web server available for download.
You can find it right now at http://mymobilesite.net and soon also via http://www.nokia.com/betalabs, where there are a number of other cool applications.
The main difference between Raccoon and MWS, which is based upon Raccoon, is that while the former is primarily intended for hard-core developers and others who don’t mind spending time at the bleeding edge, the latter is more geared towards regular end-users. However, the possibilities for customization and for building your own kind of mobsites are still there.
Furthermore, MWS provides HTTPS and access control at the gateway, so the possibilities for controlling who can access what, are much improved.
Raccoon will continue to be developed and maintained, with the intention of bringing the S60 port of Apache httpd ever more closer to the other operating system versions, and the Raccoon gateway will also be kept available.
Developer support for both Raccoon and MWS is available at Forum Nokia:

If you install MWS, check also out the Contact Browser Plugin that works with MWS. It will very soon be made available at:
