update currencies & URL file-access & cURL

As more and more hosts disable fopen and it's wrappers, do the core devs think an improved way to update the currencies could be developed? I recently gained some insite on the fopen URL file access thing and from what I know now isn't they a way to use cURL for this?

What your thoughts?

There is merit in the idea. http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=38510&highlight=curl+fopen

In spite of the fact that more and more servers are blocking it by default, you can often alter your own site settings to enable fopen() via php.ini:

allow_url_fopen = On
