Tasks planned some time in the future

Performance

• Performance analysis and optimizations for speed and memory footprint
• Make performance comparisons with similar REST libraries for Java, Python and Ruby

New features

• Socks 5
• Cache permanent redirects in a global repository LRU cache

Improve security

• Implement TLS using DataReader/Writer in stead of asio. That allows use of libressl, native crypto providers and full control over certificate chains and revocation checks.

Implement Form Data encoding**

• Multi-part file uploads (#6)

Portability

• Windows 10 / clang
• Cent OS
• FreeBSD
• OpenBSD
• Implement asynchronous iterators for received data and integrate with json parser (may be something for C++20).
• Implement generic support for 'pages' of data, where we re-query for more data in the background

Tasks planned further into the future

• HTTP 2 support

Future maybe someday features

• Json / std::set
• Json / True generic C++ container support (any object that support forward iteration and insert/add)
• Json / Add data-type suitable for representing money (must be able to serialize deserialize like float/ BigDecimal)
• Mime multipart Requests and responses
• Circuit Breaker (Fail fast for hosts that don't work)
• Bulkheads (Use separate connection pools for different services)
• Make performance comparisons with similar REST libraries for Java, Python and Ruby
