Hi,

We are working with Wookie in a project and need to send HTTP POST. Will you add support for HTTP POST through the proxy? Today it only send "XMLDATA-TODO" according to ProxyServlet.java.

The proxy uses commons HttpClient - it should be fairly straightforward to finish the POST support; would you like to try doing this yourself and send in the fix as a patch?

Another question is regarding doing Basic Auth through the Wookie proxy. Will it be supported in the future? What would be the easiest way to manage this?

At the moment it will translate a request containing a username and password as parameters into a HTTP Basic Auth request, e.g.

proxy?url=http://myurl.com&username=usr&password=pwd

Though looking over the code I think there are plenty of areas for improvement here.

(We had hoped we could reuse Shindig's proxy code, but sadly it was wound too tightly into lots of other parts of Shindig and could not be extracted into a standalone jar.)
