The FAQ <https://gemini.circumlunar.space/docs/faq.html> details the improvments over Gopher. For HTTP, note that 0.9 did not have "virtual hosts" and did not have structured error codes, both are present in Gemini. Also, Gemini comes with its own markup format, and does not use HTML, unlike HTTP 0.9. The Web site <https://gemini.circumlunar.space/> discusses these design choices. But I assume this is not the place to discuss the Gemini system :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe: https://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: https://curl.se/mail/etiquette.html
