[Caml-list] ANN: ocamlnet-3.2

[Gerd Stolpmann]

Hi list,

A new version of ocamlnet (3.2) is ready for download and installation.
This version adds a number of features:

      * Netfs.stream_fs is the class type for a simple file system. It
        is quite minimalistic, and covers a bit more than can be done
        with the standard library (w/o Unix)
      * Netfs.local_fs is an implementation of stream_fs for accessing
        the local filesystem
      * Http_fs.http_fs is another implementation for accessing
        filesystems via HTTP
      * Shell_fs.shell_fs is another implementation for accessing
        filesystems by executing shell commands
      * There are generic algorithms for iterating and copying files
      * Netglob: is an implementation of globbing (wildcard resolution).
        It can be used for local files, but also for any stream_fs file.
      * Netmulticore is an experimental library for parallelizing code
        by using multiple processes.
      * Netconversion.user_encoding returns the current character
        encoding the user has set in the environment (locale)
      * Netsys_posix: adding the openat family of functions; adding
        fchdir; adding fdopendir

There is also a bugfix: Http_client can again take advantage from
aggressive connection caching.
