DESCRIPTION
POE::Component::Server::Echo implements a RFC 862

spawn

defaults to L<POE::Wheel::SocketFactory|POE::Wheel::SocketFactory> default;
"BindPort", the local port that we wish to listen on for requests,
defaults to 7 as per RFC, this will require "root" privs on UN*X;
"options", should be a hashref, containing the options for the component's session,
