Also possible. The problem is that with two HttpClient branches (and additional development branch planned) to support, the least thing I want is another branch to maintain. I'll happily pass the code onto anyone willing to maintain and keep it in sync with the official 2.0 branch, but I do not want to have this burden to fall onto the shoulders of actual HttpClient developers & contributors. I see taking stewardship of JRE1.1 fork as an excellent opportunity for new people to join the project, learn HttpClient's internals and eventually start contributing to the 'official' HttpClient branches.

Unless someone else steps in, the port would be pretty > much unmaintainable. It's such a shame for it to be dead on arrival. It would be nice if we could keep it tied to HttpClient directly somehow. Other than replacing all java.util names with the collection.jar package names what must be done? Would it be possible to just include some directions, an Ant script, and a few custom classes in contrib?
