Hi all,

I've been using my HTTP/1.1 httplib for quite a while now. It seems quite
stable in everything that I've tried. I need to port over the recent
changes for SSL stuff, but it is ready to go.

The library contains a deprecated, backwards-compat class (HTTP), and its
replacement: HTTPConnection. Responses are now handled through
HTTPResponse class.

Doc for the new class will also be needed, but (of course) the old doc
still applies.

Any comments on the module and/or its inclusion into 1.6?

Cheers,
-g
