Paul Benedict commented on MNG-4306:
------------------------------------

Is the EPL compatible with ASL? Perhaps you could clone their just-introduced NTLMv2 support:

> We need a new high performance Wagon that encapsulates all the features of the current HTTP wagons, but will be the single implementation we use going forward.
> Brian's comments on the features of each Wagon right now:
> Currently the lightweight impl handles NTLMv2 and does a better job
> caching the data when the repository asks for authentication (this one
> uses Sun code). The Sun code has bugs that interfere with uuencoding
> of data in the headers, specifically the passwords. The other wagon
> uses the httpclient, which doesn't support NTLMv2 and doesn't cache
> the data, screwing up the stream observers with repos that need auth.
> It doesn't screw up the data in the headers. So hopefully Jetty will
> support NTLMv2, be smart about handling authenticated repos and not
> screw up the data in the headers.
