Gaap (also Tap, Coap, Taob or Goap) is a demon that is described in demonological grimoires such as the Lesser Key of Solomon,[1] Johann Weyer's Pseudomonarchia Daemonum,[2] and the Munich Manual of Demonic Magic,[3][4][5] as well as Jacques Collin de Plancy's Dictionnaire Infernal.[6]
These works describe Gaap as a prince in human form who incites love. The Munich Manual also says that "Taob" also provides medical care for women, transforms them to make it easier to get to a lover, renders them infertile, and rules twenty-five legions of spirits. The other sources instead describe Gaap as a president, giving him the power to teach philosophy and liberal arts, make others invisible, steal familiars from other magicians, make men stupid, and carry men between kingdoms; in addition to ruling sixty-six legions of demons. Johann Weyer also connects Gaap to necromancers, and states that he was first called upon by Noah's son Ham, along with Beleth. He was of the order of potestates.
Gaap (or Goap) is also one of the four cardinal spirits, of the south in the Lesser Key of Solomon, the west in the Pseudomonarchia Daemonum.
In the Livre des Esperitz,[7] Gaap (as Caap) is still a prince, but appears as a knight, brings gold and silver anywhere, and rules twenty legions of spirits.
According to Thomas Rudd, Gaap is opposed by the Shem HaMephorash angel Ieuiah.[8]

NaviServer is a high performance web server written in C and Tcl. It can be easily extended in either language to create web sites and services; there are over 35 modules available (including database integration or protocol support for UDP, SMTP, LDAP, DNS, COAP, etc.) The project is under active development, NaviServer is mostly written in C with a very well-commented source code, had more than 6,000 commits made by 35 contributors representing more than 100,000 lines of code. NaviServer is licensed under the terms of the Mozilla Public License (MPL). Recent new features include: an internal watchdog for automatic server restarts server internals exposed in a command line mode thread shared arrays (atomic operations, dict support) built-in caching with cache transaction semantics (cache commit/rollback) hot code swapping (update code in the running system without server restart) asynchronous spooling of requests and replies delivery of static files optionally with gzip or brotli compression with automatic re-compression on updates selective logging with color highlighting (non-blocking) efficient built-in crypto support mass virtual hosting byte-range requests for streaming and resumption of downloads rich HTTPS support (server and client-side SNI, OCSP Stapling) built-in HTTP/HTTPS client support, with log-files built-in statistics (for mutex locks/rwlocks, cache, db-handles, ...) bandwidth management via multiple connection thread pools WebSocket and IPv6 support
Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) is a specialized UDP-based Internet application protocol for constrained devices, as defined in RFC 7252 (published in 2014). It enables those constrained devices called "nodes" to communicate with the wider Internet using similar protocols. CoAP is designed for use between devices on the same constrained network (e.g., low-power, lossy networks), between devices and general nodes on the Internet, and between devices on different constrained networks both joined by an internet. CoAP is also being used via other mechanisms, such as SMS on mobile communication networks. CoAP is an application-layer protocol that is intended for use in resource-constrained Internet devices, such as wireless sensor network nodes. CoAP is designed to easily translate to HTTP for simplified integration with the web, while also meeting specialized requirements such as multicast support, very low overhead, and simplicity. Multicast, low overhead, and simplicity are important for Internet of things (IoT) and machine-to-machine (M2M) communication, which tend to be embedded and have much less memory and power supply than traditional Internet devices have. Therefore, efficiency is very important. CoAP can run on most devices that support UDP or a UDP analogue. It serves as the basis for other Internet services, such as DNS over CoAP. The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Constrained RESTful Environments Working Group (CoRE) has done the major standardization work for this protocol. In order to make the protocol suitable to IoT and M2M applications, various new functions have been added.
The Livre des Esperitz (Book of Spirits) is a 15th- or 16th-century French goetic grimoire that inspired later works including Johann Weyer's Pseudomonarchia Daemonum and the Lesser Key of Solomon. It contains ideas, traditions, and elements of works dating back to at least the 13th century. Like the Lesser Key of Solomon, the Livre des Esperitz has been attributed to Solomon. The Livre des Esperitz merely lists the hierarchy of hell, and does not include prayers, conjurations, invocations, or spells to summon any being described. It does provide detailed descriptions of each spirit's appearance and function, and lists how many legions of demons serve under each. Many of these descriptions eventually found their way into later works, often unmodified. The demons listed within it are first listed as: Lucifer, Bezlebut, Satan, Orient, Poymon, Equi, King Veal, Duke Agarat, Prince Barbas, Prince Bulfas, Marquis Amon, Count Batal, King Gemen, Duke Gazon, Prince Artis, Duke Machin, King Dicision, Duke Abugor, Count Vipos, Marquis Cerbere, Prince Carmola, Duke Estor, Prince Coap, Duke Deas, King Asmoday, Marquis Bitur, Duke Beal, Prince Forcas, Count Furfur, Marquis Margotias, Prince Oze, Marquis Lucay, Duke Pucel, Count Jayn, Duke Suralet, King Zagon, Prince Dragon, Prince Parcas, Duke Gorsin, Marquis Andralfas, Duke Flanos, King Brial, Marquis Fenix, Distolas And then as:
Before the 1921 destruction of Tulsa’s Greenwood District, Black residents had created a remarkable center of business and community life. The district included stores, professional offices, entertainment venues and homes owned by Black citizens. Understanding Greenwood means learning what was built—not only what was burned.
