Acknowledgements
This buildpack is based heavily upon Jordon Bedwell's Heroku buildpack and the modifications by David Laing for Cloud Foundry nginx-buildpack. It has been tuned for usability (configurable with Staticfile) and to be included as a default buildpack (detects Staticfile rather than the presence of an index.html). Thanks for the buildpack Jordon!
