Moving libhttpstor is now a simple matter of simultaneous commits to
hail.git and tabled.git, moving the code and updating build machinery.
BTW, I suggest we do it differently: rename the functions and
the struct httpstor as they are introduced in libhail (without
changing anything else, to prevent accidential regressions).
This way, tabled and our out-of-tree tests can continue to build
for a couple of days and smoothly switch over to new libraries.
To what should the functions be renamed?
We will want to copy over the req_sign* stuff as well as httpstor stuff,
otherwise it's not a full S3 lib.
BTW 2, what is the license? I am wondering if we should adopt
a "Lesser GPL" for libhail. I heard some unhappy comments about
Fefe shipping libraries with GPL, and not necesserily from proprietary
vendors. There was some stuff wrt linking perfectly free code with MIT
license or something, but I do not remember details.
A fair point. It's GPL for the whole package due to laziness, which
means linking apps MUST be GPL as well. Even some open sourcers
complain at this restriction, when it appears in other projects.
LGPL or MIT is fine with me, for libhail.
