I'm not quite sure about that either, it also depends how far off 4.3 is :) No offense to your coding skills (I'm quite surprised at how fast you were able to get this off the ground, actually :), but imho, it should also be tested a bit, before PHP 4.3... > If you have some time to play with it, I would be grateful if you could > test it with other protocols (such as ftp and ldap) that I'm unable to > test due to lack of time or lack of a test server. > I will try, my only problem is that i have no cvs access during the week (I'll go with snapshots), as I'm behind a *really* crappy firewalled internet connection (actually, I'm behind 3 proxies: Python NTLM Authenticating Proxy -> MS Proxy -> Squid -> Internet :) > I'm hoping that we can keep php_curl_stream_opener as generic as > possible for all the different protocols - I need your familiarity with > the curl api here to help figure out what is best. > I'll take a look the best I can.. If you have any specific questions, ask away... Also, as daniel mentioned, the libcurl-dev mailing lists are a nice place for this as well, if the question goes beyond my cURL knowledge. -Sterling > --Wez. > > > -- > PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
