First draft of the Web Application spec

[Florent Georges]

Hi,

I am very pleased to announce the first public draft of the
"Web Application" spec from the EXPath Community Group. It is
available at:

http://expath.org/spec/webapp

The goal is to define a general purpose binding to HTTP, on the
server side. The spec defines how components are passed the HTTP
request information, how they return the HTTP response to send
back, and how requests are dispatched to which components.

Components can be XSLT, XQuery and/or XProc components. The
can be used to serve resources (or web pages), to create filters,
and to implement specific error handlers.

Servlex is an open-source implementation of this specification.
See the following links for more information on the EXPath
initiative, on the W3C EXPath CG, and on Servlex:
