    (I replied:) &gt; *What are you willing to pay for someone to take care of the Windows side?* We get exactly zero dollars for our windows version of curl and you&#39;re welcome to get a share of this revenue!

    #curl can download a single transfer HTTP/1.1 (clear-text) 100G file from localhost at 5674473589 bytes/sec on my machine. That&#39;s a lot of bytes every second.

    No one in the seven-person curl security team is on or runs Windows. People sending us Windows-only flaws makes us groan and roll eyes. And sometimes hyperventilate a little. Why this is so? Because no one in the team wants to be on Windows, and no other curl contributor is active enough, Windows-knowledgeable and interested in joining the team. Let me know if you are someone like that who I&#39;ve just not noticed.

    Welcome to try out #curl 8.22.0-rc1 https://curl.se/rc/ Thanks for flying curl.

    Anyone using HTTP/2 server push with libcurl? If you use this feature in libcurl, please let us know. It is being deprecated all over, including in specs, browsers and servers and I believe the time has come for us to drop it from libcurl in the future as well. So I&#39;m curious to know if anyone actually (still) uses it.

    I&#39;m sorry but I&#39;m not going to speak at NDC Techdown 2026 in September as previously planned.

    https://curl.se/ just got a menu refresh, try it out! All new, but looks similar to before... Should work better on small screens/mobile and with keyboard navigation. Heavy lifting done by Rito Rhymes. See https://github.com/curl/curl-www/pull/611

    As an Open Source person I am apparently expected to keep doing things for free so I get invited to participate in EU policy events in Brussels, with not even an attempt to offer me compensation for travel, lodging or time. So I decline.

    Also, just three more days of bliss. 😱

    I would like us to make an effort to move #curl&#39;s HTTPS-RR and ECH support out of experimental mode before end of year 2026. https://curl.se/mail/lib-2026-07/0013.html

    It seems there is a limit to the freebies given from GitHub, even for me:

    Michael Winser of Alpha Omega talked about the current Open Source security situation and AI at BSDCan 2026. Lots of material in there from yours truly. https://youtu.be/gq4-g9ELZgc

    If you&#39;re looking for something to help out with in the #curl project, here is an idea! Enable one, some or all experimental features in your local build and use them for a while to see how they behave - and report all problems: https://curl.se/dev/experimental.html

    Time to make the top-menu on curl.se better? more keyboard and mobile-friendly. https://github.com/curl/curl-www/pull/611

  • Post #4135765

    Did anyone implement Resumable Uploads for HTTP yet server side? In particular for multipart formposts. Nested mime sections even more so. Supporting this client-side is going to be an adventure... I&#39;ve started to think about this, and you know, interop and all that. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-httpbis-resumable-upload/

    No #curl CVEs at all during July because of bliss. Highly recommended.

    Over the last 30 days, the curl.se website handed out 2.98 of data TB/day. A new record.

    Out of the 100 million USD that has been donated through #GitHub sponsors, 0.0641% was given to #curl (64K USD since 2019) https://github.blog/open-source/maintainers/100-million-for-open-source-a-milestone-built-by-the-community/

    glibc has this open bug to resolve link-local host names for AF_INET6 since 2012 https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14413 Now this causes problems to #curl, as it now does separate name resolves for IPv4 and IPv6 in order to start connecting once the first response is in. 😕 https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/22330

    You don&#39;t see people from the frontier models brag about how many vulnerabilities they FIXED, only how many they FOUND.
