summary

LibreOffice replaced two legacy Universal Content Providers for WebDAV and HTTP—one using neon and one using Apache Serf—with a single new UCP implemented on libcurl. The replacement targets known requirements, consolidates bugfixes, reduces code, and enables use of the OS TLS stacks on Windows and macOS.
