FYI there was also this proposal of a google summer code there [https://julialang.org/soc/projects/general.html#middlewares-for-common-web-application-chores-in-muxjl](https://julialang.org/soc/projects/general.html#middlewares-for-common-web-application-chores-in-muxjl)

> ## Middlewares for common web application chores in Mux.jl
> 
> Implementation of mid-level features - specifically routing, load-balancing,  
> cookie/session handling, and authentication - in [Mux.jl](https://github.com/JuliaWeb/Mux.jl). The implementation  
> should be extensible enough to allow easy interfacing with different kinds of  
> caching, databases or authentication backends.  
> (See [Clojure/Ring](https://github.com/ring-clojure/ring/wiki/Why-Use-Ring%3F) for inspiration).
> 
> **Expected Results** : Improvements to the Mux.jl package.
> 
> **Required Skills** : Experience with web development.
> 
> **Recommended Skills** : Knowledge of various web frameworks, especially the design decisions and tradeoffs behind them.

It seems it wasn’t allocated this year in the recently published [gsoc 2018 student list](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/gsoc-2018-students-announced/10508)  
I don’t know if there was (or will be) any others evolutions
