Hi all,

I'm looking into Twisted for some projects at work and believe I may be able to 
work on #5148 <http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/5148> to add HTTP 
authentication to twisted.web.client.Agent, since I need at least Basic support 
(and will probably just add Digest too while I'm at it.)

I took a look at the branch changeset 
<http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/changeset?new=32269%40branches%2Fhttp-client-auth-5148-2&old=32267%40trunk>
 and it looks like what's been done so far is the addition of a basic agent 
that will eventually talk to an as-of-yet-uninvented responder that will 
provide the authentication.  Is there any more than this at this point?  Did 
anyone have ideas that they felt would work better?

I'm pretty new to actually using Twisted, but I think I get it.  I may need 
some help making the end result fit well, since I'm discovering a lot of new 
things as I dig into the source.  (Obviously, step 1 is bring that work up to 
the trunk… my merge attempt was a disaster, so I might just hand-apply the 
changes for now.)

P.S. I'm zigg on IRC and Trac, but I'm not necessarily online or responsive 
most of the time.
