Jason van Zyl commented on WAGON-89:
------------------------------------
You misunderstand. If someone is doing work that never requires authentication
which is a lot of the time then throwing an exception is confusing. It's not
expected if you're not authenticating.
> When you use a call that doesn not use authentication the call should not
> throw an authentication exception

> Key: WAGON-89
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/WAGON-89
> Project: Maven Wagon
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: wagon-provider-api
> Affects Versions: 1.0-beta-2
> Reporter: Jason van Zyl
> Assignee: Brett Porter
>
> A general problem with the way we make requests. We should differentiate
> between authenticated and non-authenticated requests. To make a call that
> requires no authentication like a simple file or http retrieval and have to
> trap an authentication error makes no sense and is confusing to consumers of
> the API.
