BUGS
- Curl has grown substantially from that day, several years ago, when I
- started fiddling with it. When I write this, there are 16500 lines of source
- code, and by the time you read this it has probably grown even more.
+ Curl and libcurl have grown substantially since the beginning. At the time
+ of writing (mid March 2001), there are 23000 lines of source code, and by
+ the time you read this it has probably grown even more.
Of course there are lots of bugs left. And lots of misfeatures.

When reporting a bug, you should include information that will help us
- understand what's wrong, what's expected and how to repeat it. You therefore
- need to supply your operating system's name and version number (uname -a
- under a unix is fine), what version of curl you're using (curl -v is fine),
- what URL you were working with and anything else you think matters.

If curl crashed, causing a core dump (in unix), there is hardly any use to
send that huge file to anyone of us. Unless we have an exact same system
a stack trace and send that (much smaller) output to us instead!
The address and how to subscribe to the mailing list is detailed in the
