I just downloaded it and tried it.  This is nice!  I had to tweak the 
config file slightly to get it to run -- you had left in a hardcoded path 
in AppServer.config.  But once I fixed that, it worked great.  Direct HTTP 
serving and WebKit adapter protocol running in the same appserver -- 
excellent!  This gives us the hooks we need to add in HTTPS, FTP, etc. as 
possible future extensions.  It also allows virtual hosts which I didn't 
test, but I'm sure people will appreciate that feature.

The new description at the top of AppServer.py helped a lot in 
understanding what's going on.

The only thing that jumped out at me as a flaw was that you have to repeat 
the same virtual host information multiple times in AppServer.config.  For 
each Service that you define, you have to repeat the virtual host to 
Application mapping table.  I wonder if there's some clean way we could 
avoid this?

Besides that, I noticed that the code still needs a little bit of cleanup 
-- I'm getting some extra debugging stuff printed out and also some 
warnings about deprecated methods, but you probably knew about those already.

Thanks!
