  Description     : WebSocket pluggable transport - server

Pluggable transports are tools that transform a stream of application traffic
into a different format on the network. This helps to bypass network-level
censorship.

This package contains a server transport plugin that accepts connections
transformed to look like the websocket protocol. This is typically used to
enhance systems like Tor, to provide service even to censored users.

See flashproxy-client for a corresponding client transport plugin, meant for
users to bypass censorship, that is compatible with the websocket protocol that
this package expects.

(The source package also contains a websocket-client transport plugin, but
this is just a demo that is less effective than flashproxy-client, and not
meant to be used in real situations.)
