Feel free to forward his message to whom it may concern. Please consider making the 7.4.1 package available from your ports section instead of the currently available 7.2.1. I am of course willing to answer to any questions regarding this or other curl related ones. -- Daniel Stenberg -- curl project maintainer -- http://curl.haxx.se/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
