...is on its way to CPAN. Changes since 5.33 are:
o LWP::Protocol::ftp now try to use the MDTM command to support
the Last-Modified response header as well as
If-Modified-Since in requests. Original and final patch by
Charles C. Fu <ccwf@bacchus.com>
o $url->path_components will not escape "." any more.
o WWW::RobotRules will now work for Mac text files too (lines delimited
by CR only). Patch by Olly Betts <olly@muscat.co.uk>
o lwp-rget support <area ..> links too.

Gisle
Release alpha-0.22
LWP::Conn::FILE now works on systems where getpwuid() and getgrgid()
do not (i.e. WinNT). Patch by Blair Zajac <blair@gps.caltech.edu>.
LWP::Conn::HTTP and LWP::Conn::FTP now use LWP::Conn::_Connect to
to the connection establishment.
LWP::Conn::_Connect really works now (I think!)
The IO::EINPROGRESS hack is now more forgiving. This hopefully means
that we work on WinNT too.

Release alpha-0.21
Applied patches by Blair Zajac <blair@gps.caltech.edu>.
Use the POSIX module to obtain EINPROGRESS unless you have a IO
module that already support this. Avoid some undef warnings.

Release alpha-0.20
LWP::Conn::FTP should work pretty well by now. We support HEAD,
GET, PUT, DELETE and TRACE methods.
LWP::Authen had not been updated to newest URI::Attr interface
changes.
LWP::EventLoop->activity can be used to avoid having a socket
time out even when there isn't really any activity going on.
Needed because the FTP command socket can be non-active for
long periods of time.
