To do in a future release (random order):
* FTP ASCII upload does not follow RFC959 section 3.1.1.1:
"The sender converts the data from an internal character representation to
the standard 8-bit NVT-ASCII representation (see the Telnet
specification). The receiver will convert the data from the standard form
to his own internal form."
* Make the connect non-blocking so that timeouts work for connect in
multi-threaded programs
* Using FILE * in the libcurl API introduces a serious limitation since (at
least in the *nix falvours I know) you can fopen only the first 256
files. This means, that an application that first opens or fopens 256 files
has no chance to use libcurl. Using open and file descriptors instead of
FILE * would solve the problem. This implies a minor API
change/enhancement. ck1 <ck1@swissonline.ch>
* It would be nice to be able to use "-d" (or something similar) to attach
parameters of EITHER the GET or POST type... It would either require
another curl argument to specify "GET" (obviously the default should remain
POST), or it would require a new curl argument (perhaps -G/--get-data).
I know we're running out of letters, but it somehow feels a little
"cleaner" to just tag on each of your HTTP "parameters" (data-items) one by

* Add an interface that enables a user to select prefered SSL ciphers to use.
* Make curl deal with cookies better. libcurl should be able to maintain a

* An option to only download remote FTP files if they're newer than the local
one is a good idea, and it would fit right into the same syntax as the
already working http dito works. It of course requires that 'MDTM' works,
and it isn't a standard FTP command.
* Suggested on the mailing list: CURLOPT_FTP_MKDIR...!
* Add configure options that disables certain protocols in libcurl to
