Two enhancements: HTTP 1.1 keepalive and SSL

Two things that would definitely help
this implementation:

1. Optional SSL for socket operations
2. Conforming to HTTP/1.1 and allowing
persistent connections to be requested
by the client, so each SOAP call doesn't
require a new connection.

Any word on either of these getting
implemented?

Is there, in fact, a servlet version of rpcrouter.jsp? If so, is it publically
available?

thanks.

I started working 'off line' on the SSL version. I would like to work
with the servlet replacement of the reouter.jsp. I do not expect any
interface changes. There is just going to be a new https transport and
changes in some utility modules. I  hope it is going to be real
transparent (the URL will have https and NOT http).

p.s. SSL socket connection does not work for me but  my test
environment works OK over a URL connection (on Linux with Apache,
mod_ssl, openssl and Tomcat). Encryption strength will depend on the
type of the respective crypto jar file (its strength is export
controlled). I would also like to use certificates for authentication
(the APIs are there for CGI) but I am just currently researching the
respective Java APIs.
