I am interested in extending the Network.HTTP code in the HTTP package to support HTTPS via TLS. [snip] I am left with the conclusion that it is impossible to support TLS in Network.Browser without breaking many Haskell programs. It is obviously possible to fork the HTTP library, but I'd like to improve the state of the existing libraries. Likewise, it is possible to create a new module that supports HTTPS but has different typed functions and lots of code duplication with Network.Browser, but that is quite inelegant.

If you need Network.Browser's functionality, it would be great if it could be ported to work with http-conduit. I wouldn't consider using HTTP on any production code.

Perhaps I should just use the Network.HTTP.Enumerator module and not deal with Network.Browser? Maybe I'm going about this in entirely the wrong way.

What are you trying to do? On most cases http-conduit has everything you need.
