I started working on this a bit last month:
http://wiki.yak.net/668

Besides being strapped for time and being focused on improving Mono's
WinForms implementation (which now allows me to run nunit-gui and
Reflector under Linux), I do *not* want to assign the copyright of my
changes to anyone.

The only reason I can think of for requiring copyright assignment is
so the code can be relicensed later, which I do not support. Relicensing
means that my own code might later be legally inaccessible to me free of
charge. So, until that  restriction is removed, I'm focusing on other
things. If I submit code to a project under the LGPL (or whatever), I want
my code to stay that way.

That being said, someone could easily read my blog post and keep going
down the path. The fact it uses the Rhino library that HttpUnit uses means
that someone could look at how HttpUnit integrates with Rhino and use that
as the basis for HttpUnit.


Hope this helps! :)
