"""BaseHTTPServer that implements the Python WSGI protocol (PEP 333, rev 1.21)

This is both an example of how WSGI can be implemented, and a basis for running
simple web applications on a local machine, such as might be done when testing
or debugging an application.  It has not been reviewed for security issues,
however, and we strongly recommend that you use a "real" web server for
production use.

For example usage, see the 'if __name__=="__main__"' block at the end of the
module.  See also the BaseHTTPServer module docs for other API information.
