The following page has been changed by OlegKalnichevski: http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-httpclient/NewProjectCharter New page: = Charter = The following charter for '''Jakarta Http Components''' project is pending approval of the Jakarta Project Management Committee (PMC). == Rationale == The original {{{ Jakarta Commons HttpClient API }}} has a number limitations that cannot be resolved without a significant architectural redesign. Moreover, {{{ Jakarta Commons HttpClient }}} has been increasingly used in applications and environments it has not been specifically designed for. The existing monolithic design no longer adequately reflects the use patterns of {{{ HttpClient }}}. {{{ HttpClient }}} needs to be refactored into a toolset of simple, low level HTTP components suitable for building more specialized HTTP services. == Project scope == * {{{ Jakarta Http Components }}} project develops a toolset of low level components focused exclusively at the transport aspects of HTTP protocol * {{{ Jakarta Http Components }}} project '''DOES NOT''' define an application API on top of the low level transport API * {{{ Jakarta Http Components }}} '''MUST''' be content agnostic. The project '''DOES NOT''' develop components intended to produce or consume content of HTTP messages * {{{ Jakarta Http Components }}} project continues the development of {{{ Jakarta HttpClient }}} (former {{{ Jakarta Commons HttpClient }}}) based on the toolset of HTTP components * {{{ Jakarta Http Components }}} project develops an HTTP connector or a lightweight server component as a reference material to demonstrate the capabilities of the toolset. The said artifacts '''ARE NOT''' meant for production use and are not released as official Apache Jakarta products. * {{{ Jakarta Http Components }}} project collaborates with other projects to develop specialized HTTP services for production use based on the toolset of HTTP components == Initial set of committers == '''Project Lead''' Michael Becke '''Project Committers''' Adrian Sutton Ortwin Glueck Oleg Kalnichevski --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
