Hi Maarten and Will

Fetch from the file.
I just wanted to try the code running on localhost.

Well, do I have to work on a webserver?
I thought %async-protocol.r serviced a sort of server, listening on specified port ?

I think I'm confused about the context of the use of this protocol :(
Could you provide me with a concrete use case ?
