Stephen et al Based on the project's charter approved by the Jakarta PMC on Oct 31st, 2005 the HttpComponents project is meant to have the ownership of the Commons HttpClient codebase http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/httpcomponents/project/project-charter.txt It all did not matter much while we were still one (more or less) happy family. My preference is to not not move stuff around (option 1). I am planning to cut HttpClient 3.1 final release shortly after HttpClient 4.0 alpha1. 3.1 is very likely to be the last release of the HttpClient 3.x codebase unless some serious security or legal problems are found. There is no point in investing a lot of efforts into a codeline, which is going to become dormant very soon. Oleg > I don't believe its terribly sensible for it to do so.
