Hi,
We use httpclient 5.0.3 as a dependency to our library. One of our library 
users run into an issue where http client run into possibly infinite loop and 
started consuming all available CPU. We are unfortunately not able to reproduce 
it.

httpclient 5.0.3 - the latest stable version - uses httpcore and httpcore-h2 in 
version 5.0.2

The latest stable version of httpcore & httpcore-h2 is 5.0.3 which contains a 
fix for "a defect in the async (non-blocking) transport potentially causing an 
infinite event loop and and excessive CPU utilization” 
(https://hc.apache.org/news.html <https://hc.apache.org/news.html>) which 
sounds like a potential fix to our problem. As far as I can see there was no 
httpclient release using this version of httpcore.

This brings me to final question - is httpclient 5.0.3 compatible with httpcore 
& httpcore-h2 in version 5.0.2? 
It seems like projects follow semantic versioning so it should be, but since 
there was no httpclient release depending on the latest httpcore I would like 
to double check.

Thanks!
Maciej Walkowiak
