History of Changes
+Daniel (18 April 2001)
+- Input from Michael Mealling made me add --feature to curl-config. It
+ displays a list of features that have been built-in in the current
+ libcurl. The currently available features that can be listed are: SSL, KRB4
+ and IPv6.
+
+- I committed Cris and Georg's perl interface work. They've got callbacks
+ working and options that receives those slist pointers.
+
+- Puneet Pawaia detected a problem with resumed downloads that use persistant
+ connections and I made a rather large writeup to correct this. It is
+ important that all session-data is stored in the connectdata struct and not
+ in the main struct as this previously did.
+
+Daniel (17 April 2001)
+- Frederic Lepied fixed a ftp resumed download problem and introduced a new
+ error code that lets applications be able to detect when a resumed download
+ actually didn't download anything since the whole file is already present.
+ Should this return OK instead?
+
+- I added 'curl-config.in' to the root dir and configure script. Now, a
+ curl-config script is made when curl is built. The script can be used to
+ figure out compile time options used when libcurl was built, which in turn
+ should be options YOU should use to build applications that use libcurl.
+
+ This *-config style is not a new idea, but something that has been used
+ successfully in other (library based) projects.
+
+- Phil Karn pointed out that libcurl wrongly did not always use GMT time zone
+ for the If-Modified-Since style headers.
+
+- Georg Schwarz pointed out an extra needed #include file needed in src/main.c
+ for curl to build on Ultrix.
+
Daniel (11 April 2001)
+- Cris Bailiff pointed out two problems that I corrected. First, libcurl's use
+ of the environment variable HTTP_PROXY in uppercase may become a security
+ hazard when people use libcurl in a server/cgi situation where the server
+ sets the HTTP_*-variables according to incoming headers in the HTTP
+ request. Thus, a "Proxy:"-header would set that environment variable!
+
+ Then, invoking curl_easy_perform() without having an URL set caused a crash.
+
- SM brought a patch that make curl use non-blocking connects on windows when
connection timeout is set, as it allows windows users to set that timeout!

- Cris Bailiff, Forrest Cahoon and Georg Horn work on the Perl interface.
- I've written a first shot at a Java interface to libcurl. Many thanks to
