The C++ Network Library was founded by Dean Michael Berris in 2007. Initially

it consisted of a message template and an HTTP client. It found a home on

[[http://sourceforge.net/projects<spanclass="emphasis"><em>cpp-netlib</em></span>][sourceforge]]

but was recently migrated to [[http://github.com/mikhailberis/cpp-netlib][github]]

__sf_cpp<spanclass="underline">netlib but was recently migrated to _github</span>_

where development is actively continued by a committed community.

components are described below:
