Re: ANNOUNCE: libapreq-0.30_01 (fwd)

It does look interesting. However there are two things we'd have to sort out. First of all, is there a way to differentiate between Get/Post/Cookie? If not, I'm sure he'll add that to his C lib. Also, we'd still need to check out the variable names and see if they are arrays, and then deal with them ourselves. So there would still be a bit of work involved. What do you think? Is there any documentation for this project? There's not too much in his .tar.gz and I just took a quick look.
