I don't have anyything definite on this, but I suspect it is in
reference to using bidirectional HTTP for MUD clients. There's a
semi-useful discussion of the area rooted at:
<A HREF="http://www.di.unito.it/mail_archive/2WayProt/0000.html">http://www.di.unito.it/mail_archive/2WayProt/0000.html</A>
<later>
Ahh, found it! See:
<A HREF="http://www.firebolt.com/IMP-rfc.html">http://www.firebolt.com/IMP-rfc.html</A>
--<cut>--
The Purpose
Select a working subset of HTML that incorporates easily into a MUD
stream Allow a seamless integration into normal servers so that
users of an IMP-enabled client notice only the tremendous special
features and not the detection process while users of other clients
are not affected at all.
--<cut>--
I also observe the utter lack of a reference implementation.
