So far we've been using libcurl because we wanted a complete (and easy to use) HTTP implementation that would, for example, be able to make use of proxies and handle HTTP redirections properly. The minimal HTTP implementation in OCSP might also be sufficient for what's required by CMP. We will look into using that instead of libcurl, and get back to you. best regards, Miikka ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List openssl-dev@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
