<notes><![CDATA[
- * ctype is now mandatory
- * replaced calls to php_parse_date() to http_parse_date() (original by libcurls Curl_parsedate())
+* added ob_httpetaghandler() (has major limitations compared to http_cache_etag())
+* smarter ob handling in http_cache_etag() - used buffers will be fetched, freed
+ and piped through again, so that everything passes the etag ob handler
+* added static final HTTPi class (PHP5) providing fairly every function as static method
+* added HTTPi_Response class (PHP5)
+* added HTTPi_Request class, only HEAD/GET support for now (PHP5/curl)
+* renamed http_content_type() and http_content_disposition() to http_send_*
