David Jarrin commented on ABDERA-437:
-------------------------------------
A critical security issue has been uncovered in the old commons-httpclient
library. Please read here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-644
Any support for commons-httpclient was stopped as of 2007 so there is no hope
that the security issue will be fixed on that code base. The new HttpComponents
does not have this security issue.
It would be extremely helpful (and urgent in my opinion) for Abdera development
to provide a version that works with the new HttpComponents library. Please
consider prioritizing this important update.
> Is there release plan for Abdera 1.2?

> Abdera 1.1.3 was released on year of 2012, is it being maintained now? any

> Abdera 1.1.3 uses commons-httpclient-3.1.jar in released package, but seems
> commons-httpclient is replaced by Apache
> HttpComponents(http://hc.apache.org/httpclient-legacy/index.html), does this
> mean we should drop commons-httpclient as client in future? Will latest
> version of HttpComponents be included in Abdera 1.2?
