HttpComponents Project News
+* 10 February 2011 - HttpComponents HttpClient 4.2-beta1 released
+
+ This is the first BETA release of HttpClient 4.2. This release completes development of several
+ notable enhancements in HttpClient:
+
+ * New facade API for HttpClient based on the concept of a fluent interface. The fluent API
+ exposes only the most fundamental functions of HttpClient and is intended for relatively
+ simple use cases that do not require the full flexibility of HttpClient. However, the fluent
+ API almost fully relieves the users from having to deal with connection management and
+ resource deallocation.
+
+ * Redesigned and rewritten connection management code. As of release 4.2 HttpClient will be
+ using pooling connection manager per default.
+
+ * Enhanced HTTP authentication API that enables HttpClient to handle more complex authentication
+ scenarios. HttpClient 4.2 is now capable of making use of multiple authentication challenges
+ and retry authentication with a fall-back scheme in case the primary one fails. This can be
+ important for compatibility with Microsoft products that are often configured to use
+ SPNEGO/Kerberos as the preferred authentication scheme.
+
* 7 February 2012 - HttpComponents HttpClient 4.1.3 (GA) released
HttpClient 4.1.3 is a bug fix release that addresses a number of non-critical issues found
