Hi Bernd,
For my project I used an earlier version of mongoose. I've shared it with other members of the group. It has desirable features above httpd.
Had the same issues with goahead.

At the moment I`m using the httpd web server which is already included in the ecos enviroment. It`s working but it takes a long time at startup to be able to open the first webpage. I`m not sure if the httpd source code is responsible for this delay or any other part of the ecos.

I`v also heard about the Goahead webserver, but the fact that we`ve to include the logo at the startpage makes this web server unusable for this project. But there`s another web server, called "appweb" which should be fast and also small... but I`m not quite sure if it is suitable for a ecos system because it looks like equal to apache server.
