[GNUnet-developers] HTTP

Hi,

the attached patch adds (incomplete) support for HTTP through a proxy
server.
Unfortunately, the proxy server Squid (www.squid-cache.org) doesn't support
chunked transfer-encoding and insists on getting a "Content-Length"-Field.
That blows the current design of the HTTP-Transport.
Perhaps we need a separate connect(), POST and close() for each message we
send.

Another problem is, that peers behind a proxy can't accept connections from
the outside. So the proxied peer has to maintain "GET"-connections to all
the peers it is connected to in order to receive messages.

Any comments or other suggestions?

Best regards,

Nils
