[Haskell-cafe] ANNOUNCE: http-enumerator 0.0.0

[Michael Snoyman]

Hi all,

I'd like to announce the first release of http-enumerator[1], an HTTP
client package with support for HTTPS connections. This release is
very experimental; bug reports and API feedback are very welcome.

In addition to providing built-in HTTPS support, this package also
attempts to improve upon current offerings by offering a very simple
API, being built on bytestrings by default, and using the enumerator
package to allow efficient parsing of response bodies. I've also put
up a blog post[2] giving some more motivation and future goals for
those interested.

Michael
