Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-857:
----------------------------------------------
Go ahead and switch to another HTTP client implementation for all I care. Though, this will not free you from having to deal with badly written web sites optimized for a specific set of browsers that behave differently based on the value of the User-Agent header.
Open-source is not for off-loading your job responsibilities to other people.
