+This is an implementation of ERIS over HTTP [https://eris.codeberg.page/eer/http.xml].
+
+In addition to the barebones specification, the following extensions are implemented:
+
+1. Uploading blocks. Users authorized with the standard basic HTTP authorization
+can POST a block in order to upload it to the server, remotely.
+
+2. When accessing entire URNs, one can also specify the MIMETYPE as an additional query parameter:
+
+GET /uri-res/N2R?urn:eris:...&type=text/html
+
+This can be used to directly access the content in a web browser.
