Description

I think commons http client is a must in terms of HTTP support as it supports a lot of different authentication modes that I don't know that we currently support. It shouldn't be that hard to integrate either. XFire users tend to depend pretty heavily on it. The XFire code can be found here:

http://svn.xfire.codehaus.org/browse/xfire/trunk/xfire/xfire-core/src/main/org/codehaus/xfire/transport/http/CommonsHttpMessageSender.java
