The tutorial does a good job of telling me about the contribution package:
"There are several custom socket factories available in our contribution package. They can be a good start for those who seek to tailor the behavior of the HTTPS protocol to the specific needs of their application: EasySSLProtocolSocketFactory<http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta/commons/proper/httpclient/trunk/src/contrib/org/apache/commons/httpclient/contrib/ssl/EasySSLProtocolSocketFactory.java?view=markup>can be used to create SSL connections ..." However, it doesn't go far enough and actually tell me where to find this "contribution package". The author must not realize how difficult it is to find something like this without prior knowledge of it's existance. So can someone please shed some light on where this package can be found? Yes, I tried Google without luck. Yes I tried looking in the mailing list archive, but frankly without a search function, it's a bit tedious to look through countless pages looking for a needle in a hay stack.
