The Tycho users could probably help with testing, if we embed the httpclient4/p2 version into a Tycho SNAPSHOT. This is not a big thing once there is a p2 I-build with the updated transport [2].
Best regards

Subject: [p2-dev] httpclient4-based file transfer provider
I've added to the ECF codebase a new filetransfer provider based upon Apache httpclient4 (httpcomponents).
This could possibly be used in future versions of p2/Equinox...but it will *not* be in the Juno release.
See this comment/bug for further details/info [1]. I would request some help from other p2 committers/community in testing for regression this new provider under various proxy conditions, as I don't have access to all the various configurations of proxies that people will wish to use.
Thanks,
Scott
