Hi all,

I am new to HttpClient and was reading through its "Getting started" =
section. What struck me immediately is that HttpMethods are full-fledged =
objects of their own in HttpClient. I think this is a great idea.

However, I don't understand why HttpClient couldn't have something like =
a HttpResponse object that is returned when execute() is called. It just =
seems a bit kludgy to call getResponse() on the HttpMethod object =
itself.

Was there a design reason on why this was done ?

PLUS: I am enjoying this library. Thank you for it!

Regards,
Tarun
