  Description     : WebSocket library

 The WebSocket Protocol enables two-way communication between a client
 running untrusted code in a controlled environment to a remote host
 that has opted-in to communications from that code.
 .
 The security model used for this is the origin-based security model
 commonly used by web browsers. The protocol consists of an opening
 handshake followed by basic message framing, layered over TCP.
 .
 The goal of this technology is to provide a mechanism for
 browser-based applications that need two-way communication with
 servers that does not rely on opening multiple HTTP connections
 (e.g., using XMLHttpRequest or <iframe>s and long polling).

This package will be maintained in the OCaml team.
