What do we do? Do we try to keep up with HttpClient from CVS HEAD knowing they will break API compatibility? This would mean that persons who download Cactus 1.5 will need to get a "CVS HEAD version" of HttpClient (we are bundling it of course).
Or do we modify the Gump setup so that nightly builds of cactus are performed against the 2.0 branch of HttpClient and wait for a first alpha release of the next version of HttpClient? The third solution (which is a bit of work) is to have an adapter class providing compatibility between HttpClient 2.0 and HttpClient from CVS HEAD. What do you think? At this point in time, my personal feeling is that we should provide HttpClient 2.0 compatibility as this is what everyone will be using (either by using the 2.0 version or through the adapter stuff).
