OWIN is not a web server interface. it is a specification that define how servers, web frameworks and other middleware communicate between them.
so there isn't an "implementation of OWIN". There are components, servers and frameworks that conform to the OWIN spec, therefore can play together. e.g.: Kayak conforms to OWIN. Say that IIS will also conform to OWIN at some point. Assuming you use a web framework that uses the OWIN spec to interface with the web server it is hosted in, then you would be able to switch between IIS and Kayak without any problem. Assuming that said framework is MR3, meaning you'd have multiple options for hosting your application based on your needs.
