Hi all,

sorry for the late reply, just arrived today.

Progress is going slowly, I haven't had much time!

There is a lot to do, as there has been a lot of activity in the
http-crcsync git. The firefox-crcsync code only reflects what was done
till 2009-07-30. On top of this, most of the GSOC code was pretty much
non-working except in special conditions, these also need to be
cleaned.

I need a couple of weeks to get the code properly working again and
implement the changes above. I'll keep you guys posted on the
progress...

... and ask stupid questions!

Regards,
Pedro
