+Description: simple http server class
+ Instances of the HTTP::Daemon class are HTTP/1.1 servers that listen on a
+ socket for incoming requests. The HTTP::Daemon is a subclass of
+ IO::Socket::INET, so you can perform socket operations directly on it too.
+ .
+ The accept() method will return when a connection from a client is available.
+ The returned value will be an HTTP::Daemon::ClientConn object which is
+ another IO::Socket::INET subclass. Calling the get_request() method on this
+ object will read data from the client and return an HTTP::Request object. The
+ ClientConn object also provide methods to send back various responses.
+ .
+ This HTTP daemon does not fork(2) for you. Your application, i.e. the user of
+ the HTTP::Daemon is responsible for forking if that is desirable. Also note
+ that the user is responsible for generating responses that conform to the
+ HTTP/1.1 protocol.
