I got the invitation for WNDP (Windows Network Developer Platform)

Windows Network Developer Platform

Windows Network Developer Platform encompasses technologies such as Winsock, WinINet, HTTP Server API and WinHTTP.

HTTP Server APIs (also known as HTTP.sys) is the kernel mode HTTP server stack in Windows that provides user-mode Win32 APIs. It is used by IIS 6.0 in Windows Server 2003 and also ships in XP SP2 (although IIS does not use it there).

Windows Vista Beta 1 includes a new API for HTTP.sys, HTTP Server API Version 2.0. It supports a boatload of new features such as logging, authentication, bandwidth management, timeouts, connection limits, caching and more.

Microsoft Windows HTTP Services (WinHTTP) provides developers with a high-level interface to the HTTP/1.1 Internet protocol. WinHTTP is designed to be used primarily in server-based scenarios by server applications that communicate with HTTP servers. WinHTTP is also designed for use in system services and HTTP-based client applications. WinHTTP ships in Windows 2000 SP3, Windows XP SP1 and Windows Server 2003 onward.

The Windows Internet (WinINet) application programming interface (API) is a set of functions that enable applications to interact with FTP and HTTP protocols to access Internet resources. As the standards evolve, these functions handle the changes in underlying protocols, enabling them to maintain a consistent behavior.

If you are an application developer or ISV using HTTP.sys, WinHTTP or WinInet, you can use this site to report bugs and/or request features. We will incorporate Winsock into this feedback system shortly.

If you'd like to share your experiences using these technologies or post comments, we also have a blog (rss).

Please help us help you by reporting bugs and feature requests for these technologies - we are committed to help you!

Thanks!

WNDP team.
