websocket upgrade?

I see in curl's doc that websockets are supported, but I don't see them in https://ygrek.org/p/ocurl/api/Curl.html . Is it explicitly not supported? Would it be a lot of work to add support, if there was a will?
I allow myself to give a first response (but of course @ygrek will give the ultimate answer). This project is basically on maintenance mode but patches to extend coverage of libcurl are received with some frequency; they are reviewed and generally accepted (as a glance at the list of closed PRs will show you). So I would say that if you are interested in adding bindings for the WebSocket functions, your best bet is to put a patch together and submit it for integration.
One issue to keep in mind is that these functions are marked "EXPERIMENTAL" which means they could change in the future. I don't know if there is any policy regarding such functions in ocurl.
Yes, patches are welcome ofcourse. Experimental can just mark the same in ocaml interface and we will be free to break them in the future.
