RE: RE: HTTPAPI vs ISockets

[<DBelcher@xxxxxxxx>]

Shahar,

You've got to let him go sometime ;)  I mean that's what part of open source is all about, share the code, share the load.

Of course I have to include my endorsement to all of Scott's good work here too.  I have used many of his program code snippets, programs, services, etc and have always been in awe of the quality of the work.  However, after saying that I'm sure that he already knows it and I think responding to Cozzi is what we should be doing.  Does anyone have a link to a posted comment that we can respond too?

We are using httpapi for many projects for long time. It is very usefull, the code is elegant and there are very few known issues with it.

We use the software to consume web services from application. it is being used by many organizations including finance and insurance.

Scot keep up the good job dont retire on us the way frank soltis did :)
