[Haskell-cafe] [ANN] first release of http2-client

[lucas di cioccio]

Hello, I'm pleased to announce the first release of the http2-client [0]
library on Hackage. This version is fresh and has limitations (see
README.md) but I can successfully query pages with simple queries on a
number of popular websites. I could validate server pushes against GoLang's
HTTP2 server demo. I could also hammer Warp with dozens of concurrent
requests just fine. I would not recommend using the package for more than
evaluation at this point. If you are eyeing towards having a solid HTTP2
client soon, please consider trying http2-client and reporting bugs on the
GitHub page [1].

I'm welcoming contribution to the code but I'm also looking forward to
build some automation to validate against implementations found "in the
wild". Starting this work also allowed me to report/fix a few bugs on
Warp's HTTP2 implementation. Hence, even if you are not looking forward to
be a http2-client user you may find interest in such work as we all benefit
from this.
