Julien Nioche resolved NUTCH-751.
---------------------------------

    Resolution: Later

The changes in the underlying API are quite substantial and this would need a bit of work. Maybe this could be done as part of crawler-commons? In the meantime I'll just mark it as 'later'

> The existing version of commons http-client (3.01) should be replaced with the latest version from http://hc.apache.org/.
> Currently the only way of using the https protocol is to enable http-client. The version 3.01 is bugged and causes a lot of issues which have been reported before. Apparently the new version has been redesigned and should fix them. The old v3.01 is too unstable to be used on a large scale.

> I will try to send a patch in the next couple of weeks but would love to hear your thoughts on this.
