I expanded the functionality - shall load it to github? Why did HTTPS not work? Problems on the server?

I just had not implemented HTTPS before.

Basically, I try to keep my Perl programs self-contained and with few dependencies. This way, they run on pretty much everything, including Windows with Perl installations of questionable quality. Opening a socket and speaking HTTP is easy - but unencrypted.

I now modified it to use IO::Socket::SSL.

You are using LWP::UserAgent, I have never used that. Feel free to turn my proof-of-concept into something better. I will probably not go much farther here, because I'm concentrating on PCC2ng. Just got a few minutes of idle time while that is building in the newly set-up Continuous Integration...

Also, feel free to poke me if you need something in the API that does not yet exist.

Should I make a developer forum? :smile:

This is a testing version.
It may be incomplete, and have more bugs (or features) than the public live version at planetscentral.com.
