Overview
A simple, multithreaded experimental HTTP/1.1 (RFC 2616) web server. Developed to experiment with the behavior of user agents and proxies.
The server registers itself with the JVM as an MBean, as "novaordis:service=http-server", so it can be managed via a standard JMX client such as VisualVM or JConsole.
