Lac - library for asynchronous communication, v. 0.5 (first release)



"Lac" expands to "Library for Asynchronous Communication". It is a
network abstraction library like a zillion others, but with a few
features rarely found in other network libraries:

        - Works well with the GLib main loop.
        - Asynchronous, caching DNS resolver.
        - Pipelining HTTP 1.1 implementation

These features haven't been tested much, so they will contain bugs and
missing pieces here and there. They should be basically working,
though.

Features that would be nice to have, but aren't in the libary yet:

        - HTTP cache
        - HTTP cookies
        - Support for SSL
        - HTTP Proxy support
        - FTP implementation
        - Documentation

You can help adding these, of course.
