-----------------------------------------------

How about trying to find the middle ground?
I made HttpCache and BasicHttpCache package provide as these classes are more
likely to require major changes than any other. I left HttpCacheEntry and
HttpCacheStorage related classes public for the time being. HttpCacheEntry is a
concrete class and it is final. HttpCacheStorage and friends are relatively
simple and straight-forward and we already have a number of diverse
implementations so they seem flexible enough. I am quite confident we can
maintain full API compatibility with these classes in the future.
Please review and let me know if I should make above mentioned classes package
private as well.

> API surface of caching module can be reduced
> --------------------------------------------

> Key: HTTPCLIENT-1005
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1005
> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Cache
> Affects Versions: 4.1 Alpha2
> Reporter: Jonathan Moore
> Attachments: smaller-api.patch
>
>
> While the caching module can currently be considered functional and useful
> for folks as-is, there are several near-term enhancements planned that could
> change the exposed binary API of the caching module (although it is not yet
> clear whether they would or not). In an effort to allow the 4.1 GA release to
> go forward while hedging bets against future development, we should consider
> drastically reducing the exposed binary API of the caching module, and not
> exposing extension points until someone explicitly asks for them.
