If I remember correctly http goes both ways. Also its not really a lot
of baggage - you can f.i. structure your plugin stuff in the filesystem
tree, so a GET parameters/factor[.html] would just get you a "1.233"
f.i., and PUT (or was it PUSH?) of the same sort sets the value.
Note again, using an existing protocol helps development and debugging
and probably interoperability.

Anyone knows another simple standard protocol that can be used?

Richard.
