[Cuis] Was a consensus reached re: HTTP/HTTPS?

[David Graham]

I’d be honored to see the WebClient port included in the core Packages and I’m fine with any decision Juan makes.  I really like the Cuis philosophy, so most of the porting involved rewriting code to conform to what is available in Cuis.

Just a couple notes:
1. The Cuis-DigitalSignatures and Cuis-UUID packages in my repo should be imported as well.  These invoke VM primitives and should remain independent.
2. I've used the the WebClient code on my own, without trouble, but the unit tests are very broken and I haven’t had enough spare time to fix these.

Also, the Cuis-SecureSocket package in my repo is a port of the SqueakSSL code.  This code works, but needs a lot of attention.  I had a trivial Cuis update app that monitored and could install CoreUpdates directly from github, but github switched to using TLS SNI and the SNI update hasn’t made  its way into the Squeak VM plugin yet:
