Guillaume Jeudy commented on AXIS2-3933:
----------------------------------------

Oleg, I think this is indeed an issue. I'm struggling to use HTTP NTLMv2 
authentication. The current commons httpclient 3.1 doesn't support NTLMv2. If 
Axis2 was not coupled to it I could swap this for httpclient 4.0 which in 
conjunction with jcifs does support NTLMv2.

> Axis2 kernel currently has a direct dependency on Commons HttpClient 3.1

> (1) This seems conceptually wrong to me. The kernel ought not have any 
> dependencies on a transport specific libraries
> (2) A more practical reason: it is just a matter of time HttpClient 3.1 will 
> be superceded by HttpClient 4.0 and support for commons HttpClient will be 
> discontinued. 
> If there is an agreement this is indeed an issue, which should be resolved, I 
> will happily invest time looking into what it takes to decouple HttpClient 
> from Axis2 kernel.
