I considered HTTP/1.1 but left it out for a few reasons, mostly that in this case it would lead to hackishness. ;) For example, the socket may timeout if there aren't enough requests within a given timeframe. Another is that, if the servlet and server aren't managed/owned by the same people, it's a little rude to maintain a 24/7 socket to someone else's machine for a "stateless" protocol...
