+Description: OCaml library for writing HTTP servers
+ OCaml HTTP is a library for the Objective Caml programming language,
+ used to build simple HTTP servers, largely inspired to Perl's
+ HTTP::Daemon module.
+ .
+ In order to implement an HTTP servers the programmer has to provide a
+ daemon specification which contains, among other parameters, a callback
+ function invoked by OCaml HTTP on well formed HTTP requests received.
+ HTTP responses could be sent over an out_channel connected with client
+ socket, accessible from the callback.
+ .
+ The library contains also facility functions that helps in creating
+ well formed HTTP responses and a tiny HTTP client.
