[Project_owners] read data from server

[joe ertaba]

Hi

is there any simple way for extension to read some data from server (html
page or ftp) ; data like latest version, some database update , some new
hints , ...

I know that it is possible to read html data,...
but it seems that it isn't good idea because it doesn't show
progress-bar,error handling and also is hard works!

so maybe there is some easier way ?

cheers
Joe
