The modified HTTP module is available from:

In line with Graham Klyne's suggestion [3] that a consistent version of this module be brought into some "community space", it will probably move to the haskell-libs project at SourceForge in the not too distant future.

Is it possible to move the module to the network package from the standard libraries (fptools/libraries). There already exists modules for CGI,Socket and URI.

Possibly. In general we're moving to a more decentralised model for distributing libraries with the Library Infrastructure Project, but it may still be a while before that's stable. Guidelines for fptools/libraries are here: http://www.haskell.org/hierarchical-modules/libraries/libraries.html Parts of that document are out of date, but the "Reference Libraries" section is still relevant for the parts of fptools/libraries that we ship with compilers.
