Greetings:

 From the LWP documentation:

	=head1 BUGS

	The library can not handle Multiple Simultaneous Requests (MSR's) yet.
     	Also, check out what's left in the TODO file.

What about building a queue and feeding the requests into libwww one at a
time from the queue. This would ensure that MSR's don't happen. Has anyone
tried that? It sounds slow!

If I *had* to handle MSR's, what would be the best way to go about it? I
definately don't want to reinvent the wheel. Especially considering I don't
 understand it yet.

 From todo.

 	 o  HTTP/1.1 support is on its way.  This also includes support of
	     multiple parallel connections.  Take a look at LWPng (aka
  	     libwww-perl-6).

Anyone have an idea what kind of a time frame "on it's way" might be?
Will multiple parallel connections allow multiple simultaneous requests?

Todo also mentions more documentation. If I ever figure this thing out, I
could write, "The Documentation For Idiots." I tend to over explain; trying
to understand myself. You guys with the doctorates in computer science
might be surprised how many would take look at it. You know; on the sly;
when no one is looking:)

Thanks,
Mike
