Hello!

I'm pleased to announce the first release of curlhs package
(curlhs-0.0.1), a new Haskell bindings to libcurl, the multiprotocol
file transfer library which powers popular curl tool.

hackage: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/curlhs
github: https://github.com/kkardzis/curlhs

Package is distributed under ISC License (MIT/BSD-style, see LICENSE
file for details).

Current version of curlhs follows libcurl in version 7.25.0. It is
also possible to use curlhs with older versions of libcurl, but some
features may not be available then (curlhs should easily compile with
libcurl from version 7.20.0 upward).

Bindings are not complete, there is still a lot of work to do, but I
think that for many simple tasks it's enough. The aim is to provide a
mid-level interface to libcurl, which will be fairly complete and
close to the original API.

With this initial release I hope to gain some feedback from potential
users. Any comments and suggestions are welcome.

Greetings, Krzysztof Kardzis
