Session strategies for liveCode server

[Björnke von Gierke]

I'm on on-rev. so for me there's no place to go for documentation at all, and altho there is a pdf that contains most stuff, it's usually out of date, unattainable or gets otherwise forgotten by RunRev. i'll mail them when i ever really need this, but i wish they'd put more effort on quality overall.
