[Opensim-dev] Separation of HTTP interface from HTTP server

[Teravus Ovares]

One thing to pay attention to is the https implementation as well.
OSHTTPServer looks like it'll be a snap to set up SSL, but please provide
the properties! :D

Please have a look at revision 6299, 6300, 6301 for how I've tweaked
baseHTTPServer to support SSL as well as http simultaniously when SSL is
enabled.  That can change and, it's good to have it in mind when working on
the interface.

Best Regards

Teravus
