[Mono-dev] Application accepting HTTP requests

This is possible.   The core of XSP lives in the Mono.WebServer
assembly.

Look at the file xsp/src/server.cs, thats the front-end to the library.

You can do this, but if you want to "host" ASP.NET (if you are planning
to use the ASP.NET web services) then you must implement an
HttpWorkerRequest class that interfaces to the HttpListener interface.

Not difficult, but not as straightforward as using the stuff you need
from XSP.
