Libwww - the W3C Protocol Library on OpenVMS

Libwww (see http://www.w3.org/Library/) is a general-purpose Web API written in C. With a highly extensible and layered API, it can accommodate many different types of applications including clients, robots, and so on. The purpose of Libwww is to provide a highly optimized HTTP sample implementation as well as other Internet protocols and to serve as a test-bed for protocol experiments. Libwww also supports HTTPS, through OpenSSL.

This is place to come for announcements, questions, reporting bugs, telling us what you are doing with Libwww on OpenVMS, and so forth.
