Cool, but does this package now needs to be submitted to NEW? And if so, 
is anyone willing to do this?

OK, you're asking for it, here's my marketing blurb:

libzeep is a library to build web applications in C++ and has all the 
bells and whistles, it is very easy to expose your C++ application as a 
web service with REST calls, security, etc.

The design concepts are similar to the well known Java Spring framework 
and the templating is mostly compatible with thymeleaf.

It has been in production for years now in many very heavily used web 
applications.

So, if you have web applications that need high performance throughput, 
libzeep might be an option worth looking at.
