There was [a problem after moving the forum](https://forum.duplicati.com/t/moving-forum-to-new-ip/17768), but it should be fixed.

Yes, the CI tests are passing backup+restore, the Selenium tests are passing and my manual tests are passing. Note that this is with the `HttpServer` and the `RestAPI`.

Sound great!

The `WebserverCore` project is not used by the old `HttpServer` (using `Duplicati.Library.RestAPI`).  
I am not sure about the `LegacyHttpResponseShim` intended future role. Maybe @tsuckow has some insights?
