Hi Daniel,
We are not the same as Easyengine as you say (not even one line of code) and we don't use the same NGINX repo.
I'm pretty sure you can find a lot of tutorials in Google about "how to compile your own nginx", actually it's pretty easy. In fact, I think that I saw an automated script in the repo you mentioned before (Virtubox), you can take a look.
Just be careful about what you call "advanced".
- Why do you want to use a beta version of OpenSSL that is not ready for production?
- Do you feel comfortable hosting a site using a beta version of OpenSSL? (especially for eCommerce sites)
- Why do you want to use a compression technology that is not supported by some not updated browsers?
- Really! Do you like pagespeed?
- Can you tell me, what features you want or are currently missed from the nginx modules you mentioned?
- In general, what do you expect with these "new features"?
- Etc... etc.
- Etc!!
Also, these are not "NGINX Features", they are just external modules, I'm saying it because it's important to note that we are not missing any official nginx feature.
Regards.
