Very cool! We're about to release a new API version, so be prepared to release an update :)
I'm curious why the proxy is needed? Is it because luasec is a hassle to ship with Love2D games ?
I've not tried to bundle luasec with Love2D, so I'm relying on something I know works for now. I've read into it a few times and abandoned the idea each time, although it has been a long time since I looked into it.
Edit: Also, I wonder where is the best place to learn of the new version so I can make sure I keep up? I imagine there'll be a blog post, but I don't always keep up with those.
It looks like https://github.com/LPGhatguy/luajit-request might be an option as well!
