Subject: Curl extension
From: pierrick@webstart.fr (Pierrick Charron)

Hi all,

I started today to play with libcurl and went through documentation. I
noticed that there were a lot of features that were not exposed in the
curl PHP extension which made me wondering if someone is still
maintaining this extension to keep it as close as possible from the C
version. If nobody is, I'd be glad to do it.

I started to quickly implement all the curl options (CURLOPT_*) that
were not exposed yet and created a small patch [1] (Do not hesitate to
review the patch and give feedback). I think all options but the one
which expose callback are included in this patch. I'll continue the
work to implement all options with callback functionality.

I'm also wondering if such a patch should go in PHP5.4 or if we should
wait since we are in RC phase.

Every input is welcome :)

Pierrick
