I don't think anyone has to study too much of the draft. The libwww
package produced by the W3C would be a good start:
<http://www.w3.org/Library/> In fact it might be nice to work out an
interface between ht://Dig so that we could either just use the libwww
ourselves (the licenses are compatible) or allow people with it installed
to use it.
One advantage of using libwww is that it's updated for every change in the
HTTP spec, includes FTP and Gopher, plus HTTP Cookie support, etc. On the
downside, it's yet-another piece that we'd require to install ht://Dig.

I can't think of another necessary piece. Methods probably should include
translation to and from tm values, pieces from the Document::getdate code,
etc. I have a feeling his would really help since we can merge code in
htnotify.cc, Document.cc and other places.

You too Gabriele. I assume you're already away from work. :-)
