Hi Jesse

As far as I know Android still ships with a very old, pre-BETA version
of HttpClient 4.0. There have been numerous changes in the HttpClient
main code line, which, sadly, have not been picked up by Android. My
main concern is that the more two code lines stay out of sync, the more
they deviate from one another the more difficult it may become for you
to rebase your code line to the latest snapshot upstream.

We have also been deprecating code in HttpClient. At some point of time
I would like to start removing old code that has been deprecated for a
couple of GA releases. Since you have been skipping releases it will be
impossible to remove deprecated code without breaking API compatibility
with the version of HttpClient shipped with Android. 

Could you please share with us your plans regarding HttpClient and let
us know whether you intend to upgrade to the latest 4.0.x release at
some point?

Cheers

Oleg
