03:13 PM Ruby Feature #21258: Retire CGI library from Ruby 3.5

CGI may be an "old" protocol but that maturity brings stability. It means I don't need to run an app server process (like puma) at all. I don't need to worry about open ports, memory leaks, resource leaks, connection pooling, etc. It's e... getajobmike (Mike Perham)
