We display many email addresses on this site by replacing the '@' sign with a textual version. Research has shown that when we publish addresses in plaintext, we get a whole lot more spam. Sorry for the inconvenience.

The bug tracker is provided by sourceforge.net for the benefit of curl users.

If someone is interested and capable of hosting a good bug tracking system for this project, then please let us know. We'll keep using the sourceforge one until we find a better one.
