updated

To do in a future release (random order):

 * FTP ASCII upload does not follow RFC959 section 3.1.1.1: 

    "The sender converts the data from an internal character representation to

    the standard 8-bit NVT-ASCII representation (see the Telnet

    specification).  The receiver will convert the data from the standard form

    to his own internal form."

 * Make the connect non-blocking so that timeouts work for connect in 

   multi-threaded programs 

 * Using FILE * in the libcurl API introduces a serious limitation since (at

   least in the *nix falvours I know) you can fopen only the first 256

   files. This means, that an application that first opens or fopens 256 files

   has no chance to use libcurl. Using open and file descriptors instead of

   FILE * would solve the problem. This implies a minor API

   change/enhancement. ck1 <ck1@swissonline.ch>

 * It would be nice to be able to use "-d" (or something similar) to attach

   parameters of EITHER the GET or POST type... It would either require

   another curl argument to specify "GET" (obviously the default should remain

   POST), or it would require a new curl argument (perhaps -G/--get-data).

   I know we're running out of letters, but it somehow feels a little

   "cleaner" to just tag on each of your HTTP "parameters" (data-items) one by

   one and let curl put them together, rather than having to put them together

   myself and include them in the URL.

 * Add an interface that enables a user to select prefered SSL ciphers to use.

 * Make curl deal with cookies better. libcurl should be able to maintain a

   less copy of data and thus a faster operation.

 * An option to only download remote FTP files if they're newer than the local

   one is a good idea, and it would fit right into the same syntax as the

   already working http dito works. It of course requires that 'MDTM' works,

   and it isn't a standard FTP command.

 * Suggested on the mailing list: CURLOPT_FTP_MKDIR...!

 * Add configure options that disables certain protocols in libcurl to
