- Bug report #1815530 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1815530) points out
that specifying a proxy with a trailing slash didn't work (unless it also
contained a port number).
Patrick M (15 October 2007)
- Fixed the dynamic CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS problem: this option is now static again
and option CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS has been added to support dynamic mode.

- Added per-protocol callback static tables, replacing callback ptr storage
in the connectdata structure by a single handler table ptr.
Dan F (11 October 2007)
- Fixed the -l option of runtests.pl
- Added support for skipping tests based on key words.

- Michal Marek removed the no longer existing return codes from the curl.1
man page.

- Known bug #47, which confused libcurl if doing NTLM auth over a proxy with
a response that was larger than 16KB is now improved slightly so that now
the restriction at 16KB is for the headers only and it should be a rare
situation where the response-headers exceed 16KB. Thus, I consider #47 fixed
and the header limitation is now known as known bug #48.
Daniel S (5 October 2007)
- Michael Wallner made the CULROPT_COOKIELIST option support a new magic
string: "FLUSH". Using that will cause libcurl to flush its cookies to the
CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR file.
- The new file docs/libcurl/ABI describes how we view ABI breakages, soname
bumps and what the version number's significance to all that is.

- I enabled test 1009 and made the --local-port use a wide range to reduce the
risk of failures.
- Kim Rinnewitz reported that --local-port didn't work with TFTP transfers.
This happened because the tftp code always uncondionally did a bind()
without caring if one already had been done and then it failed. I wrote a
test case (1009) to verify this, but it is a bit error-prone since it will
have to pick a fixed local port number and since the tests are run on so
many different hosts in different situations I'll add it in disabled state.

- Fixed issue related with the use of ares_timeout() result.
Daniel S (3 October 2007)
- Alexey Pesternikov introduced CURLOPT_OPENSOCKETFUNCTION and
CURLOPT_OPENSOCKETDATA to set a callback that allows an application to
replace the socket() call used by libcurl. It basically allows the app to
change address, protocol or whatever of the socket.
- I renamed the CURLE_SSL_PEER_CERTIFICATE error code to
CURLE_PEER_FAILED_VERIFICATION (standard CURL_NO_OLDIES style), and made
this return code get used by the previous SSH MD5 fingerprint check in case
it fails.
- Based on a patch brought by Johnny Luong, libcurl now offers
CURLOPT_SSH_HOST_PUBLIC_KEY_MD5 and the curl tool --hostpubmd5. They both
make the SCP or SFTP connection verify the remote host's md5 checksum of the
public key before doing a connect, to reduce the risk of a man-in-the-middle
attack.

- libcurl now handles chunked-encoded CONNECT responses
Daniel S (1 October 2007)
- Alex Fishman reported a curl_easy_escape() problem that was made the
function do wrong on all input bytes that are >= 0x80 (decimal 128) due to a
signed / unsigned mistake in the code. I fixed it and added test case 543 to
verify.

- Immanuel Gregoire fixed a problem with persistent transfers over SFTP.
Daniel S (28 September 2007)
- Adapted the c-ares code to the API change c-ares 1.5.0 brings in the
notifier callback(s).
Dan F (26 September 2007)
- Enabled a few more gcc warnings with --enable-debug. Renamed a few
variables to avoid shadowing global declarations.
Daniel S (26 September 2007)
- Philip Langdale provided the new CURLOPT_POST301 option for
curl_easy_setopt() that alters how libcurl functions when following
redirects. It makes libcurl obey the RFC2616 when a 301 response is received
after a non-GET request is made. Default libcurl behaviour is to change
method to GET in the subsequent request (like it does for response code 302
- because that's what many/most browsers do), but with this CURLOPT_POST301
option enabled it will do what the spec says and do the next request using
the same method again. I.e keep POST after 301.
The curl tool got this option as --post301
Test case 1011 and 1012 were added to verify.
- Max Katsev reported that when doing a libcurl FTP request with
CURLOPT_NOBODY enabled but not CURLOPT_HEADER, libcurl wouldn't do TYPE
before it does SIZE which makes it less useful. I walked over the code and
made it do this properly, and added test case 542 to verify it.
Daniel S (24 September 2007)
- Immanuel Gregoire fixed KNOWN_BUGS #44: --ftp-method nocwd did not handle
URLs ending with a slash properly (it should list the contents of that
directory). Test case 351 brought back and also test 1010 was added.

- Mark Davies fixed Negotiate authentication over proxy, and also introduced
the --proxy-negotiate command line option to allow a user to explicitly
select it.
Daniel S (19 September 2007)
- Rob Crittenden provided an NSS update with the following highlights:
o It looks for the NSS database first in the environment variable SSL_DIR,
then in /etc/pki/nssdb, then it initializes with no database if neither of
those exist.
o If the NSS PKCS#11 libnspsem.so driver is available then PEM files may be
loaded, including the ca-bundle. If it is not available then only
certificates already in the NSS database are used.
o Tries to detect whether a file or nickname is being passed in so the right
thing is done
o Added a bit of code to make the output more like the OpenSSL module,
including displaying the certificate information when connecting in
verbose mode
o Improved handling of certificate errors (expired, untrusted, etc)
The libnsspem.so PKCS#11 module is currently only available in Fedora
8/rawhide. Work will be done soon to upstream it. The NSS module will work
with or without it, all that changes is the source of the certificates and
keys.
Daniel S (18 September 2007)
- Immanuel Gregoire pointed out that public key SSH auth failed if no
public/private key was specified and there was no HOME environment variable,
and then it didn't continue to try the other auth methods. Now it will
instead try to get the files id_dsa.pub and id_dsa from the current
directory if none of the two conditions were met.
Dan F (17 September 2007)
- Added hooks to the test suite to make it possible to test a curl running
on a remote host.
- Changed some FTP tests to validate the format of the PORT and EPRT commands
sent by curl, if not the addresses themselves.

- Michal Marek made libcurl automatically append ";type=<a|i>" when using HTTP
proxies for FTP urls.
- Günter Knauf fixed LDAP builds in the Windows makefiles and fixed LDAPv3
support on Windows.
Dan F (13 September 2007)
- Added LDAPS, SCP and SFTP to curl-config --protocols. Removed and
fixed some AC_SUBST configure entries.
Version 7.17.0 (13 September 2007)
Daniel S (12 September 2007)
- Bug report #1792649 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1792649) pointed
out a problem with doing an empty upload over FTP on a re-used connection.
I added test case 541 to reproduce it and to verify the fix.
- I noticed while writing test 541 that the FTP code wrongly did a CWD on the
second transfer as it didn't store and remember the "" path from the
previous transfer so it would instead CWD to the entry path as stored. This
worked, but did a superfluous command. Thus, test case 541 now also verifies
this fix.
Dan F (5 September 2007)
- Added test case 1007 to test permission problem when uploading with TFTP
(to validate bug #1790403).
- TFTP now reports the "not defined" TFTP error code 0 as an error,
not success.

- Continued the work on a fix for #1779054
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1779054). My previous fix from August
24 was not complete (either) but could accidentally "forget" parts of a
server response which led to faulty server response time-out errors.
