3. Who developed the first Web server
The European Laboratory for Particle Physics (CERN) produced
one of the first Web servers. The World Wide Web Consortium
took over development of the CERN HTTPD (also known as the
W3C HTTPD), but no longer supports it. TheW3C currently
supports a Java-based server known as Jigsaw. Both the CERN
HTTPD and Jigsaw are reference implementations, meaning that
they illustrate features of HTTP but are not meant for large-scale
production use.

excellent points of reference for developers wishing
to write their own HTTP daemon.
