 @page libhttp libkea-http - Kea HTTP Library

@section httpMTConsiderations Multi-Threading Consideration for HTTP Library

By default this library is not thread safe, for instance HTTP listeners
and HTTP messages are not thread safe. Exceptions are:

 - HTTP client is Kea thread safe (i.e. is thread safe when the
  multi-threading mode is true).

 - date time is thread safe (mainly because its encapsulated POSIX time
  is private and read-only, or because all methods are instance const methods
  or class methods).

 - URL is thread safe (all public methods are const methods).
