+Version 7.1.1

+Daniel (21 August 2000)
+- Got more people involved in the gethostbyname_r() mess. Caolan McNamara sent
+  me configure-code that turned out to be very similar to my existing tests
+  which only make me more sure I'm on the right path. I changed the order of
+  the tests slightly, as it seems that some compilers don't yell error if a
+  function is used with too many parameters. Thus, the first tested function
+  will seem ok... Let's hope more compilers think of too-few parameters as bad
+  manners, as we're now trying the functions in that order; fewer first. I
+  should also add that Lars Hecking mailed me and volunteered to run tests on
+  a few odd systems. Coalan is keeping his work over at
+  http://www.csn.ul.ie/~caolan/publink/gethostbyname_r/. Might be handy in the
+  future as well.

+Daniel (18 August 2000)
+- I noticed I hadn't increased the name lookup buffer in lib/ftp.c. I don't
+  think this is the reason for the continued trouble though.
+
+Daniel (17 August 2000)
+- Fred Noz corrected my stupid mistakes in the gethostbyname_r() fluff. It
+  should affect some AIX, Digital Unix and HPUX 10 systems.

+- Jason Priebe and an anonymous friend found some host names the Linux version
   of curl could not resolve. It turned out the buffer used to retrieve that
   information was too small. Fixed. One could argue about the usefulness of
   not having the slightest trace of a man page for gethostbyname_r() on my
   Linux Redhat installation...

+- Balaji S Rao was first in line to note the missing possibility to replace
+  the Content-Type: and Content-Length: headers when doing -d posts. I added
+  the possibility just now. It seems some people wants to do standard posts
+  using custom Content-Types.

-  name but password. As in 'http://:foo@haxx.se'. I corrected this.

-For version 7. Stuff I palnned to have included in curl for version
-seven. Let's do a serious attempt to include most of this. (I do keep a task

-curl.sourceforge.net, it might be more up-to-date than this.)

-  Make sure the low-level interface works. highlevel.c should basically be

-  Document the low-level interface
-
-  Add asynchronous name resolving, as this enables full timeout support for
-  fork() systems.
-
-  Move non-URL related functions that are used by both the lib and the curl

-
-  Add support for other languages than C (not important)

-  Improve the -K config file parser.
