What if we rather make a Swazoo-Lite, that is a subset of Swazoo just
with a HTTP client and a light HTTP server?

That way we will avoid yet another implementation of HTTPRequest and
Response classes , but we will reuse a proven and tested ones from Swazoo.

Swazoo currently don't have a HTTP client but this is easy to add
because  all the infrastructure is there. In Swazoo we otherwise need a
client for reverse proxy support, but this client can actually became
useful as a standalone client as well, as part of Swazoo Lite.

What do you think?

Best regards
Janko
