OT - a Reading Recommendation

[Alex Tweedly]

This is off-topic, but I stumbled across this paper that I only vaguely 
remembered from a while ago ... and thought about the recent discussion 
about whether/when raw sockets were needed, versus using RESTFUL http.

It's interesting reading, more "in general" than for this specific 
context. Feel free to stop reading after the prologue - about the first 
half of the paper - when he starts to get specific :-)
