At this point HttpClient is fully feature-complete and is just a
few issue reports short of being code and documentation complete.
All of the important new features such as the new preferences
architecture and exception handling framework are completely documented.
We strongly encourage comment and criticism of the current API so we can
have everything worked out by the first beta release. Following this
release the development effort will focus on stabilizing the 3.0 API
and adding more documentation. Depending on on how well this release is
received, as well as the quality and quantity of feedback, we are looking
at an API freeze in one to two months time.

We see our fellow Apache developers as well as other open-source
projects already reliant on HttpClient as the primary target
audience for this release. This is the right time to evaluate
HttpClient 3.0 and give us some feedback, critique or other thought on
the new API. Please feel free to file requests for additional features.

The goal of the second ALPHA release is to incorporate the feedback, polish
the API, and update documentation. The next ALPHA release will target the
wider audience beyond the Apache Jakarta and Apache WS communities.

originally planned, was not possible. There were a significant number of minor
bugs reported against RC1. None of them were major, but verifying, fixing, and
testing simply took time more time than anticipated. We are pleased to
announce the second release candidate of HttpClient 2.0 and hope to follow up
with a final release shortly.</p>
<p>At the same time we have been busy working on our next release, currently
designated as 2.1. It it shaping up quite well. We already have a new preferences
architecture in place that will help us provide greater control over HttpClient
without polluting its API with too many options. We have also completely reworked
redirect/authentication/retry logic and can now support cross-host redirects, a
much complained about limitation of HttpClient 2.0.</p>

<p><b>Note:</b> The binary distributions were updated on 2 June, 2003 to
fix a problem with the original jar's MANIFEST.MF. Using the original
HttpClient jar from within a servlet container or J2EE managed environment
may have caused some problems.</p>

<p>This is an intermediate alpha release. The build process used in
the previous Alpha 2 changed from generating 4 build artifacts to
a single distribution. This one zip contains everything: all
the source, the binary jar, the logging dependancy, generated
javadoc and required build files for Ant builds and JUnit tests.</p>

"One zip to rule them all, one zip to find them, one zip to
bring them all and in the darkness bind them"</blockquote>
