Actually, httpcomponents-dev would have been the right place to ask. We are still not ready to freeze the API of HttpComponents Core (the set of low level generic HTTP primitives) and are in the very early state of development with HttpClient 4.0, which will be based on HttpCore. I would not recommend using HttpCore at this point _unless_ (1) you need a consistent set of components on the client and the server side (for instance, when developing a proxy of some sort) (2) need NIO (non-blocking I/O) (3) prepared to trade the API stability for 30-50% performance increase compared to Commons HttpClient Hope this helps, Oleg > > > > -- > > David J.
