Hi,

Reading gnus-html, I see it uses curl to fetch images. Is there any
reason to not use `url-retrieve' to do that?

`url' has also a `url-cache' module that can be used to do caching. I
recently sent a set of patches to emacs-devel to improve it, and it may
be a good candidate to store and cache HTML images.

I think it would be smarter to use that modules rather than curl, but
maybe you did have a good reason to use curl, Lars?

I can volunteer to rewrite that code with `url' if you think it's a good
idea. :)
