STINNER Victor <vstinner at redhat.com> added the comment:

"http.server is meant for demo purposes and does not implement the stringent security checks needed of a real HTTP server. We do not recommend using this module directly in production."

I'm not sure about "demo" and "real" in this warning. I propose:

"http.server is not recommended for production: it only implements basic security checks."
