All known problems with the old (3.x) API and architecture limitations have been resolved. All features planned for the 4.0 release are now in place. Due to the release schedule of one of our upstream projects we will have to freeze the 4.0 API rather sooner than later. The next release is likely to be BETA1 not ALPHA5, as initially planned. If your project depends on HttpClient, this is the time to check the new API out and let us know what you think. If we do not get more feedback / change requests, the current SVN snapshot is very likely to be the API HttpClient 4.0 will ship with. If you ever wanted to have something fixed or improved in HttpClient API, this is pretty much the last chance to ask for it.
