Hi Morten and Piotr, I notice both of you are working on wininet's url cache. That's great: it's largely bitrot, and has been for years. My question is, what are you planning to fix? It seems like you're both running into some of the same issues right now, and it would be nice if you could coordinate a little. Ok, I lie: it'd be nice to get code from both of you ;)
If I were to guess, it looks like you're both working on eliminating corruption and deadlocks, both of which can occur right now. Fantastic.
Another thing that'd be nice to see is reducing the amount of disk space used. Morten, some of the patches you sent me do some of that, by removing files once they're no longer in use. (The patches I have do that too.) Piotr, were you planning to address this too?
A question that I have to ask is, would be better to eliminate the url cache altogether? Right now its only utility is to pass test cases, and conveniently fill up your disk. No requests are ever fulfilled from the cache. Either of you have any plans to tackle that?
Thanks, --Juan
