[HttpAsyncClient] API redesign; short term planning

[Oleg Kalnichevski <ol...@apache.org>]

Folks

I made some major changes to the API of the HttpAsyncClient module in
the past couple of days. I would be great if someone could keep an eye
of the state of the trunk and give feedback or critique.

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpcomponents/httpasyncclient/trunk/

At the moment the client cannot really do much other than execute simple
(non-proxied) requests over plain connections, but it greatly simplifies
the management of persistent HTTP connections which is non-trivial when
using plain HttpCore NIO API. I'll be gradually adding more features if
there is interest.

I also would like to release an official ALPHA sometime before January.
If there are any objections to a formal release of this module, now
would be the time to raise them.

Cheers

Oleg
