<almuhs>the httpfs code is very ugly: most are in the main
<almuhs>and the few functions are extremely long
<azert>sneek: later tell almuhs if I remember correctly, solid_black was pointing to another bug of httpfs, that is that it stats the full directory tree of a url while http doesn’t work like that. Take the url http://ciao.mamma/kitchen/pasta for instance, the kitchen directory might be 404. As such, I think an httpfs rewrite should probably take this
<sneek>Okay.
<azert>into account
<azert>sneek: later tell almuhs I’d contact solid_black directly if I was you
<sneek>Okay.

<lechner>other than the Glibc source code, if possible
