I think Mosaic actually used the CERN libwww library and I'm pretty sure that the CERN HTTP server was the standard at the time Mosaic was first released.

It would be interesting if there was an equivalent for social applications... a common server component, an application library and maybe a reference application but with plenty of scope for people to innovate in the UI without the need to continually reinvent the core communication components if they don't want to.
