The amount of trouble I have had getting HttpClient promoted from a component in Commons to a full project in Bugzilla was enormous. I personally do not have any strength left to go through the same exercise again. I am for 1.2 followed by 1.3 As to the project name my preference would be Jakarta Http Components (and if this also turns out to be a no-no) Jakarta Haiku Jakarta HttpAgent I think Roland generated some really great ideas.
