Electrum Bitcoin client HTTP protocol documentation

[anfedorov]

Does anyone know where the HTTP protocol between server and client is documented?

Also, I have the client installed in Ubuntu, and am not able to select HTTP (it doesn't look grayed out, but won't select when I click the radio button). If I could get the client to use HTTP, I could just analyze the traffic (in leu of documentation, which there doesn't seem to be any of).

Hm, Google and archive.org don't seem to have that page archived... when do you expect it to be up?
