Julian Reschke commented on HTTPCORE-380:
-----------------------------------------
Oleg, you are reading things into 2616 which aren't there. If RFCs 723x had had
any intention to make a normative change, it would be listed in the "Changes"
section.
FWIW, there's absolutely no point in maintaining something with compliance to
RFC 2616, when that spec has been officially obsoleted, and RFCs 723x are meant
to be backwards-compatible.

> Hi All,
> I have created a fix to support HTTP DELETEs with entity bodies. In HTTP
> Core, the HttpRequest object (BasicHttpRequest or
> BasicHttpEntityEnclosingRequest) is made by looking at the HTTP method. But
> sometimes an API could accept HTTP Deletes with payloads for example [1]. To
> support this I have introduced a new type of HTTP requests
> "HttpEntityPossibleEnclosingRequest". By calling the "getFinalHttpRequest"
> method in this class, the proper HTTP request object can be made, i.e.
> HttpRequest or HttpEntityEnclosingRequest. The logic is if the
> HttpEntityPossibleEnclosingRequest has the CONTENT_LENGTH header, an
> HttpEntityEnclosingRequest is made and an HttpRequest is made otherwise.
> Note. the spec does not prohibit an HTTP Delete having a payload [2] [3].
