1. Any TCP/IP Protocol Gurus or those willing to try?

There are several TCP/IP protocols that we would like to include with Euphoria. Currently they are:

  • SMTP
  • POP3
  • IMAP
  • FTP
  • IRC

Is anyone willing to try to write any of these protocols?

JOOI, as I don't understand the question... ;-(

Are you suggesting (say for smtp) that 'mailto' becomes a reserved word in Euphoria and becomes part of the language?

Or that someone writes an smtp.e include that wraps some pre-existing protocol and mailto() becomes a function?

Or something else again?

That someone write an include file to implement the given protocol. For example:

include std/net/ftp.e 
include std/net/smtp.e 
 
ftp f = ftp:open("ftp.johndoe.com") 
ftp:cd(f, "/pub") 
sequence files = ftp:ls(f) 
for i = 1 to length(files) do 
    ftp:save_file(f, files[i]) 
end for 
ftp:close(f) 
 
smtp:send("to@doe.com", "from@doe.com", "Hello, World!", `Hello to@doe.com, 

 
I hope this email finds you well! 
 
from@doe.com`) 

etc, etc, etc... Note, nothing above is any type of spec or how it should be implemented. Just some examples off the top of my head.

Been there, done that, not going to fight to defend each and every word i use in the code, description, or words used in the submission of either.

It's not necessary to respond if one is simply not willing to do it (or do it again).

This high standard is held of developers, but if someone just wants to drop off a patch, that's fine. (A developer would get assigned to clean up the code and make it meet the CodingConvention before applying it if this was necessary, and out of politeness we generally try to ask the patch submitter to do this if they can and only assign a developer to do it if the submitter declines. It's very rare for us to throw away a patch completely, though.)
