Subject: Re: question about server standard output


Another student had the same question.  It's a good one.  I told the
other student that for your debugging purposes, you might as well have
some debugging output on your server, but make it all controlled by a
"VERBOSE" constant or something like that.  Then disable it for your
final submit, and say in your readme that "in order to conserve server
resources, my server handles requests silently."
