Sanjiva et al,

For what it is worth, I would very strongly encourage you to consider
replacing the code in SimpleHttpServer derived from the HttpClient test
classes [1] with something else. It is very unlikely we will be
supporting that code in the future. Moreover, it has never been designed
to serve as anything else but an over-simplistic HTTP testing
framework. 

As of next release (4.0) Jakarta HttpClient will be using HttpCore
internally to handle low level HTTP transport aspects and to implement
the corresponding server side unit tests. 

If you were prepared to consider HttpCore as a replacement for the old
HttpClient test classes, I would happily pledge my full support in
migrating the code and maintaining HttpCore related stuff in Axis (at
very least until HttpCore API is considered stable and frozen) 

Cheers,

Oleg
