 /// Limitations:
 /// @li Supports only a single connection at a time.
+///     A web page with served objects (img src=...) is rarely served properly. It
+///       might trace to forcing the connection to close, but not yet sure.
+///       Explore "Set Uart Rx Data Buffer" in WiFly manual 2.3.65.
+///       This is a limitation of the Wifly module. No solution is forthcoming,
+///       so a simple workaround is to use javascript to load the images after
+///       the page loads.
 /// @li Rapid requests for page objects (e.g. embedded images) are lost. Still
 ///     working to understand this issue.
 ///
+/// Improvements:
+/// @li hunted down several lengthy operations - the speed of the file system
+///       and the "close" operation which requires <delay 0.25s>$$$<delay>close\r.
+/// @li parses the header similar to the query string, and then makes
+///       those parameters accessible.
+/// @li Added basic password capability to dynamic web pages.

 /// @li move part of the POST method handler to the registered handler, so
 ///       it can decide if it should allocate the needed memory.
-/// @li Add password capability to some web pages
 /// @li transform the pc serial interface to a log interface, which might
 ///       be more useful.
 /// @li Add ability to put WiFly in AP mode and then configuration pages
