I can agree with that, and as Edi described, there is a certain,
singular cause for that, but said company seems to begin to move.  It
is fair to say that Edi has always been very diligent and prompt in
fixing bugs in his libraries as long as he was the only one who had
control over the source code.  What we now need is a workable model to
get the development process to move forward again without sacrificing
the quality of both the source code and the documentation of Edi's
software.  If you want to check out something from a source code
control system and work yourself through tests and sparse examples,
there are other HTTP libraries that one can work with.
