RE: CMU-CL-HTTP
I have two items to mention. If you are running on x86 Linux, Franz
plans to release a free port of its current ACL 4.3 system for
non-commercial Linux use next month.
Second, to Mr. Werkowski, what are you referring to in your last
>paragraph below when you say "There is also the misuse of the values
declaration throughout which causes Python problems."????
