Re : Re : [About the Filter Chain] Proposals

[Edouard De Oliveira <do...@yahoo.fr>]

Proxy connector (the one i was first thinking of strange isn't it ? ^^) 
& ssl filter should effectively benefit from this reworking
Try to get time to exhibit the difficulties i ran into when implementing the proxy

ps : quand tu veux emmanuel pour la biere, proposes une date :)

Yep. But we also have to release quality software :)

As I said, I will let this thread live for a couple of days, so that we 
get everyone opinion, then I think that we can launch a vote.

You mean, for the SSL Filter ? I don't know that much this filter, but 
from what I have seen, it seems to be pretty complicated. I suggest you 
draft something about what's wrong about the current handling, and then 
submit some proposals to improve this guy. This is the best way to get 
things discussed first, and done correctly. Also deciphering this part 
would help a lot those of us who don't know this part of the code (well, 
I guess that almost nobody knows about it, but of course, I wish I'm 
wrong :)

Of course !

PS : une petite bière un de ces 4, histoire qu'on se rencontre entre 
apachiens parisiens  ?
