Sebb updated NET-369:
---------------------
Description:
The method addHeaderField() stores a header name/value in a StringBuffer, but
provides no means to return the contents of the buffer.
Either the method and the field should be deleted, or there should be a
getHeader() method - in which case the storage mechanism should probably be
changed to a HashMap of some kind to make it easier to return individual header
values.

Summary: Article.addHeaderField() is currently write-only - there is no
way to retrieve the headers - is it needed? (was: Article.addHeader() is
