Hello,

I apologize for the 4-month delay in responding. :)

In particular, I need to have the ability to track upload progress in a
manner that is conducive to displaying the percentage complete via
progress bar.

Is this still possible, absent the defunct module at
http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpUploadProgressModule ?

Thank you!

-Ben
