Som info for this page was extracted from <a

<ul>
<li> libcurl is (far) more portable
<li> libsoup lacks support for: cookies, NTLM for proxies
(Proxy-Authentication:), GSS, gzip encoding, trailers in chunked responses
and more that libcurl already provides.
<li> libsoup is using GNOME-related libs, making it a less convenient choice
for non-GNOME environments.
