+ @page libhttp libkea-http - Kea HTTP Library
+
+@section httpMTConsiderations Multi-Threading Consideration for HTTP Library
+
+By default this library is not thread safe, for instance HTTP listeners
+and HTTP messages are not thread safe. Exceptions are:
+
+ - HTTP client is Kea thread safe (i.e. is thread safe when the
+ multi-threading mode is true).
+
+ - date time is thread safe (mainly because its encapsulated POSIX time
+ is private and read-only, or because all methods are instance const methods
+ or class methods).
+
+ - URL is thread safe (all public methods are const methods).
