0.4.2 (net - STABLE / curl - ALPHA - compiles on Gambas 0.93b)

0.4.1 (net - STABLE / curl - ALPHA - compiles on Gambas 0.93b)

* Added a new class 'Curl', that is the base for the rest of classes in this component

0.3.1 (net - STABLE / curl - ALPHA - compiles on Gambas 0.93)

 * Added two new properties to Socket class. They are read/write, the first is called 'Port'. if
