Fellow Pharoers,
HTTP is arguably the most important and most widely used networking protocol.
It is paramount for any programming environment to have a good implementation
of this protocol. Sadly, the current one in HTTPSocket is incomplete and of low
quality. Furthermore, an HTTP implementation in Smalltalk should be clear
enough so that others can understand it, learn from it and extend it.
Zinc HTTP Components is an attempt at filling this gap. Started September 1st
and currently under development, it is an open source, MIT licensed, open
development Smalltalk framework to deal with the HTTP protocol. Please have a
look at it, please help make this something we can be proud of.

Check out what works today (Status) and what still needs to be done (Todo).
HTTP is fun, relatively easy and is something every programmer should
understand, I hope that Zinc HTTP Components can make a difference here.
