From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   stateless
  
      A stateless {server} is one which treats each request as an
      independent transaction, unrelated to any previous request.
      This simplifies the server design because it does not need to
      allocate storage to deal with conversations in progress or
      worry about freeing it if a client dies in mid-transaction.   A
      disadvantage is that it may be necessary to include more
      information in each request and this extra information will
      need to be interpreted by the server each time.
  
      An example of a stateless server is a {World-Wide Web} server.
      These take in requests ({URL}s) which completely specify the
      required document and do not require any context or memory of
      previous requests.
  
      Contrast this with a traditional {FTP} server which conducts
      an interactive session with the user.   A request to the server
      for a file can assume that the user has been authenticated and
      that the current directory and transfer mode have been set.
