The implementation of ApacheHttpTransport uses deprecated APIs.
The API for Apache HttpClient 4 changed extensively starting with version 4.3
I ported ApacheHttpTransport to HttpClient 4.5.2 using the new APIs.
Before I submit my code, I would like to know what the maintainers
think of this incompatible change.
Are you willing to upgrade to HttpClient 4.5.2 in google-http-client version 1.23.0?
Do you insist on keeping support for the obsolete HttpClient 4.2 API?
If we must support the old and the new APIs, do we support both in a single
ApacheHttpTransport class, or we can duplicate the implementation in
a different package?
