Recursos y especificaciones de HTTP
===================================

HTTP se especificó por primera vez a principios de los 90s. Diseñado con extensibilidad en mente, ha visto numerosas adiciones a lo largo de los años; esto lleva a que su especificación se disemine a través de númerosos documentos (en medio de extensiones experimentales abandonadas).
