[cpp-netlib-devel] 0.6-devel new "cutting edge" branch.

[Dean M. B. <mik...@gm...>]

Hi guys,

If you intend to follow the cutting edge developments for cpp-netlib
you can go ahead and track the 0.6-devel branch from
mikhailberis/cpp-netlib -- for this 0.6 release I intend to check in
helpers for the server-side application development using the http
server template.

In case you intend to branch for your own development, please branch
from 0.6-devel now.

Also, I'll be working on the following:

  - Asynchronous HTTP Client implementation
  - Refactoring the message type system;
    * Make the storage of message-related data its own type that
basic_message<> derives from.
    * Support different type extension metafunctions to allow
different types for source, destination, headers, body instead of just
making the string type the extension point
    * More tests on the message system
    * Implementing different rendering methods that use a MIME handler

In case you want to contribute a client implementation, please sound
off now so that I can schedule the merging and testing throughout
February -- target release for 0.6 is the end of February.

Thanks in advance guys and I hope this helps!
