Yes, only plain OCaml.

Yes: https://gps.dynxs.de/svn/app-linkdb/trunk/

Please note: This is currently a bit hackish, because the linkdb
application was originally an ordinary CGI. I more or less pressed it
into the nethttpd frame. The interesting module is probably
linkdb/lib/cgi which creates some kind of fake CGI environment for the
rest of the program. So it is working, but no good example, and the code
is not well-structured. The main program is currently in linkdb/test.
The netplex.cfg isn't the real one. Documentation is lightyears out of
date. Hope you find it still impressive.
