Thanks for update! I am thinking about using Webric for lightweight 
REST-full protocol between WEB peers. In other words I need embedable 
WEB server that will allow sevral apps exchange messages using simple 
protocol on top of HTTP (get & post + params).
The main question here: can Webric be embeded in another application so 
threads of this app will not be blocked and will continue to work 
without starvation. In fact, application I am talking about may use 
variable number of threads growing  from 1 to 100 at different times 
(these in addition to Webric threads).
