Actually droids is very hybrid ATM. The code [1] is very nice since this part (till now) is grateful ignored by droids. I will incorporate it ASAP. Regarding [2] it is very interesting indeed for droids to become part of HttpComponents. I want to rewrite the code to use spring instead of the underlying slimed down version of nutch plugins infrastructure code to make it more standard and understandable. After this rewrite I gladly see droids incubating with HttpComponents as sponsor project. Thanks Roland for the heads up. salu2 > > cheers, > Roland > > > [1] > http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/httpcomponents/norobots-rfc/trunk/src/java/org/apache/http/norobots/ > [2] > http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/jakarta-httpcomponents-dev/200501.mbox/[EMAIL > PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -- Thorsten Scherler thorsten.at.apache.org Open Source Java consulting, training and solutions --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
