Hi, Joshua Eichorn wrote:

Http_Request2 is currently only targeted at pear2 ie PEAR2_Http_Request. If your interested in helping to make a Http_Request2 release happen let me know. The code is ready for a alpha release at this point.

The thing I enjoy the most about this effort is that my name is conveniently omitted from the CREDITS file http://svn.pear.php.net/wsvn/PEARSVN/HTTP_Request/trunk/src/HTTP/CREDITS?op=file&rev=0&sc=0

We pulled all the names that were in the code and put them in the CREDITS file. I didn't check the cvs blames to figure out who else had edited the code. Anyhow this is the reason a credits file is a good idea is a quick place to see who has worked on the code.

Thanks for updating the file. If you want to see a HTTP_Request2 sometime soon, I'd suggest publicly coordinating its development, either on this list (it's pear-dev after all, not pear2-flamefest) or on some public wiki. There are a few people who are interested, but they may end up repeating each other's work. I was contacted by Sergio Carvalho in the end of July and he was going to work on his own version, too (supporting both sockets and curl, unlike the code currently available on PEAR SVN). I didn't hear from him since then, though, but he may have coded something already.
