Agreed.  Sounds like the right approach.

Folks,

With HttpCore ALPHA3 finally out the door, I think it is time we put
HttpCore on the back burner for a while and took a first stab at
HttpClient 4.0.

Here is my Evil (tm) Plan.

There are many things I never liked about HttpClient 3.x API. High on my
list are HttpConfiguration, HttpState, HttpConnection, HttpCookie. While
I am convinced there are better / cleaner ways to go about HTTP state
management, host configuration and connection management, these classes
are not broken beyond redemption the same way HttpMethod and
HttpMethodBase are.

In my opinion HttpCore fixed those things that were broken really badly
about HttpClient 3.x. So, as a first step I suggest that we simply try
to port HttpClient 3.x code to HttpCore without any drastic changes in
client side protocol code and see how that comes about. Once we have
something working and delivering equivalent functionality to that of
HttpClient 3.x, we could take a step back, take a hard look at those
things that are still sub-optimal and decide which of those need to be
redesigned.

How does that sound?

Evil Comrade Oleg
