I've implemented two modules - one for Concept Client and another for Apache HTTPD 2 that allows concept:// packages to be transported over http://. It uses GET for receiving data from the Concept Application Server and POST to send the concept:// binary package. This is the first step towards the Concept://JavaScript Client that will use the concept:// protocol over http://.
The main benefit of using http:// as a transport layer is that connection can now be stateless, although is a little bit slower than the concept:// standard protocol. Another major advantage is on firewalled networks that allow only HTTP traffic.
