Here is the plan I suggested:

	* Build a set of classes that can provide a web server from an
	  application.

	* Use these classes to implement things like HttpChannel.

	* Use these classes to roll our own "ASP.NET-server-in-a-class"

	* If people want to integrate with Apache in the future, then 
	  they could do so by adapting the classes when we have an
	  embeddable runtime (which we do not have yet).
