I now disagree with this.  Having a separate, dedicated web server (e.g., 
Apache, which is freely available) is better than trying to integrate HTTP 
server functionality into the LIVE555 server.  A dedicated HTTP server provides 
lots of functionality - e.g., load balancing, authentication, logging - that 
would be difficult for us to reimplement in our own code.

Also, we now have tools that can create HLS segments from a H.264 Elementary 
Stream file, or (on demand) from a H.264 RTSP source.

Therefore, for implementing HLS, I will soon be removing the 
“RTSPServerSupportingHTTPStreaming” functionality from the “LIVE555 Media 
Server”, and from the LIVE555 codebase.

I may also remove the code that implements the “TCPStreamSink” class - as this 
is used only to implement “RTSPServerSupportingHTTPStreaming”.  (But, if anyone 
has their own use for “TCPStreamSink”, and would like it to stay, then please 
let us know ASAP.)
