How is OSHttpServer going to be integrated while the code base explicitly refers to BaseHttpServer everywhere? I have my own reasons for wanting to be able to play with alternative servers (such as apache), the interface would allow me to do that, and would not require me to wait until a particular alternative HTTP server is made available.</FONT> <BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2><BR>Best regards<BR>Alan<BR>-------------------<BR>T.J.

We have a single implementation - BaseHttpServer - and that is directly referenced through out the tree.</FONT><FONT face=Tahoma size=2> <BR></FONT><FONT face=sans-serif size=2><BR>I'd be happy to create an IHTTPServer class and make all of the code changes necessary to fix that, and prepare for a second phase where the actual server being used could be an initialization choice. Does anybody object? Is there a compelling reson why the HTTP server is not already isolated in this way?</FONT><FONT face=Tahoma size=2> </FONT><FONT face=sans-serif size=2><BR><BR>Best regards<BR>Alan<BR>-------------------<BR>T.J.
