------------------------------------
Summary: Remove HTTP file listing with JSoup
Key: WAGON-618
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WAGON-618
Project: Maven Wagon
Issue Type: Task
Components: wagon-http
Reporter: Michael Osipov
Assignee: Michael Osipov
Fix For: 3.5.0
This feature has several issues:
* HTTP does not provide any file listing because HTTP operates on resources
only. There is no notion of directories. FS-semantics is available with WebDAV
only. Generated listings are the result of {{mod_dir}} and friends.
* If a listing is used you *cannot* assume any specific format, this being
brittle, unreliable and incorrect at worst.
* Annoying reports like MNG-7227 and WAGON-612
* We cannot comply with the license correctly WAGON-574
For all of those reasons this approach gives a little benifit adding something
which does not have any semantics at all.
