IPP> Desperately seeking info on HTTP servers and CGI scripts

"The IPP project has agreed as a goal that the IPP protocol can be
implemented
in an HTTP server as a CGI script that interfaces with a printer or print
system using whatever protocol that printer or print system supports so
that
no modifications have to be made to the HTTP server, except installing the
CGI script."
