mod_http_file_share: Let's write another XEP-0363 implementation This variant is meant to improve upon mod_http_upload in some ways: * Handle files much of arbitrary size efficiently * Allow GET and PUT URLs to be different * Remember Content-Type sent by client * Avoid dependency on mod_http_files * Built-in way to delegate storage to another httpd
