Description

It appears that the HttpConduit class do not follow 303 HTTP_SEE_OTHER redirects. There is already a special case for 301,302 and 307 responses, but no extension mechanism for specific http status handling.
A quick fix consists of adding the 303 code handling in HttpConduit.java, as done in the provided patch.
