Hi Eric
Many thanks for taking time to correct my writing. All corrections make sense to me. (BTW, no need to be over-diplomatic. I am perfectly aware that my English has its limits, especially if I just type away. Just correct it. There'll be no questions asked).
Do you still have the current CVS snapshot at your disposal? If yes, could you please recreate the patch with all those corrections, if that's not too much of a hassle?

Oleg,
A few suggested edits.... I'm not a great editor myself (I frequently
miss bevies of typos when my spouse asks me to review her writing), but
since nobody else responded, I figured I would.
Hopefully, my edits make sense.

+ <strong>JSSE prior to Java 1.4 incorrectly reports socket timeout.</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Prior to Java 1.4, in Sun's JSSE implementation, a read operation that has timed out incorrect
+ reports end of stream condition instead of throwing java.io.InterruptedIOException as expected.
+ HttpClient responds to this exception by assuming that the connection was dropped and throws a recoverable
+ HTTP exception: Error in parsing the status line from the response: unable to find line starting with "HTTP".
+ It should instead report "java.io.InterruptedIOException: Read timed out". If you see the "unable to find
+ line..." message when working with an older version of JDK and JSSE, it can be caused by the timeout
+ waiting for data and not by a problem with the connection.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <strong>Work-around:</strong> One possible solution is to increase the timeout value as the server is
+ taking too long to start sending the response. Alternatively you may choose to upgrade to Java 1.4 or
+ above which does not exhibit this problem.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The problem has been discovered and reported by Daniel C. Amadei.

+ <strong>HttpClient does not work with IBM JSSE shipped with IBM Websphere Application Platform</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Several releases of the IBM JSSE exhibit a bug that cause HttpClient to fail while detecting the size
+ of the socket send buffer (java.net.Socket.getSendBufferSize method throws java.net.SocketException:
+ "Socket closed" exception).
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <strong>Solution:</strong> Make sure that you have all the latest fix packs applied. HttpClient users
+ have reported that IBM Websphere Application Server versions 4.0.6, 5.0.2.2, 5.1 do not exhibit the problem.
