Yeah, that's what I also had in mind. But remember: I _hate_ legal stuff :))) > Now, we have HTTP client code in there. Alex would say now: Ohh yes, > we have, and I wonder how it works ;).

The main reason for which I taken this piece of code is some badness in https implementation, according to my mood and schedule I decided it will be more efficient to do a quick hack and put curl in. So, for example, it will ignore http proxy options in .conf but will anticipate http_proxy environment variable :))) Also I am not sure how it will perform under very high loads. I tried to simulate it with fakewap but had no success, now I will try to simulate it on production site. Btw, one of my colleagues from St.Petersburg hit by memory leak in bearerbox (I will try to catch it tomorrow or the day after). > BTW, seems that you are eager in pushing development here.

Yeah, if I stay with this project for some time I will of course work on wtls. As you already understood :) I work in cellular provider for now, so I'm interested in all features working properly. -- Paul P 'Stingray' Komkoff Jr // http://stingr.net/key <- my pgp key This message represents the official view of the voices in my head
