evolution 2.0 will still be using soup.

that was my main goal when talking with Jim about merging libgtcpsocket
into libgnetwork. I think libgnetwork now provides a good base, and we
just need to adapt the code in other libraries to it. One of the most
interesting things might be to add libsoup's HTTP/HTTPS implementation,
which is working pretty well now for evo 2.0 thanks to Dan Winship.

Also, gmdns will be integrated very soon.
