Eric, Of course, the patch can be rolled back. Alternatively we can leave getResponseContentLength() method as is, and introduce an additional method that serve similar function but returns long, not int.
But the whole point is that I really can't understand why Slide folks cannot just use stable 2.0 branch. At the end of the day back in February we decided to release 2.0 with the sub-optimal API primarily in order to keep Slide folks happy (even though we were still formally in alpha phase). And now what? Is history about to repeat itself? Is there any particular reason for Slide to use CVS HEAD?

I think the redirect fix will only be a problem for some uses of the HttpClient library. I would appreciate the change of the getResponseContentLength() back to its previous return value. I think it would be worth revisiting that decision. How about getResponseContentLength() and getResponseLength()? -Eric.
