Description

The current http transport relies on the Pax web whiteboard feature.

In pax web 4 this feature also installs jsp support and a java compiler. This makes the deployment unnecesarily large.

So I propose to switch the http transport to directly use the http service. This will allow to only depend on the much smaller http feature.
