Thanks, the new interface is all I need now for HTTP methods.  But I
also need FTP methods for some repositories, and maybe also HTTPS,

Ok, I can consider adding HTTPS support, but not in the near future.
Regarding FTP it would be easy to implement, but it wont definitely be
part of ocaml-http, I would have to change the name :)

Concerning https, it's only http over ssl, if I'm not wrong.

You could then simply use my ocaml-ssl library (see savonet.sf.net) which consists in bindings for the libssl. There's still a small amount of work left to be thread-safe (if you use threads) but with some help it could be done quickly.
