Curb 0.0.6 is now available from Rubyforge ([http://curb.rubyforge.org/](http://curb.rubyforge.org/)).  
Curb provides easy-to-use bindings to the libcurl URL transfer library.

This release addresses two major shortcomings in Curb, implementing both  
non-multipart form post and support for incoming cookies, as requested  
by Vlad Jebelev.

Changes for this version:

- Implemented incoming cookie support
- Implemented application/x-www-form-urlencoded POST (now the default)
- Implemented postfield to\_str for non-multipart post compatibility

(Please note the slight incompatibility with previous Curb versions - if  
you were using multipart POST you will now need to set the  
multipart\_form\_post option true on your Curl::Easy instance).
