Yes,I always recommend using the latest version of HTTPAPI.  The main 
thing that changes from version to version is bug fixes.  When features 
are added, a great deal of effort is made to maintain 
backward-compatibility, so that existing programs will work as-is.

So I always encourage folks to use the latest version.

I'm sorry, I don't know the answer to that.  I'm not certain how 
Giovanni is using HTTPAPI, or how it integrates into things.

In theory, it should be possible to install two copies of HTTPAPI in 
different libraries, and have different programs use different copies... 
  but I have never done that, myself, so I don't know how easy/hard that 
would be to implement.
