NIO

One more question, but this one is just philosophy and self knowledge.

Do you have any plans to work with NIO in some way?
I suppose it presents mainly problems with backwards compatibility althought
it promises higher control and efficiency over socket streams and several
things such as socketchannels and shared buffers would be the best way of
creating a multithreaded connection manager.

Have you had any discussion about this?

Thx for your time.

Sergio.

HttpClient is being used by a few Apache projects that only recently
abandoned 1.1 compatibility (after long and heated debates). I am afraid
if we want to play nicely with those folks, JDK 1.4 is no-go for years
to come.
