I use it on a separate project and would have preferred starting with that. Some stakeholders did not want us to use that library, but I think we should avoid maintaining our own client and wasting cycles to fix bugs. While we can argue that we "know what our bugs are" I don't think that we do and there are likely many more. Through evolution curlpp has improved and I would not like to incur that cost on our project. I would prefer to avoid maintaining curl code and use a third party library. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.14#76016)
