Last I read on this mailing list, Christopher Warner had offered to do some work to get a new release of pycurl out, but wasn't sure how much time he'd have to give to the project. Is there anything I can do to help this release happen? It would make my life easier if patch #3170067 were in the shipping version of pycurl.

There was also this thread:
   http://curl.haxx.se/mail/curlpython-2010-05/0001.html
about the desire to keep pycurl's version numbering in sync with libcurl's. I don't know if that's the stumbling block, but it wouldn't be hard to add the libcurl features from 7.19.1 through .3:

  CURLAUTH_DIGEST_IE - a simple constant
  CURLOPT_USERNAME, CURLOPT_PASSWORD - implemented in Sourceforge patch #3029282
  CURLOPT_PROXYUSERNAME, CURLOPT_PROXYPASSWORD - should be a trivial modification to the above patch
  CURLOPT_POSTREDIR - a simple integer option
  
  CURLOPT_CERTINFO, CURLINFO_CERTINFO - This would require a small amount of work to translate the struct curl_certinfo to something Python-compatible (a list of lists or a list of dicts?)
