'http4s' and 'http4' accordingly. We can possibly consider nesting or adding somethings in configuration, for example to allow 'http4://www.example.com/index.html', 'http4:http://www.example.com/index.html' (equivalent to the first) or 'http4:https://www.example.com/index.html. But that doesn't seem to make anything more convenient than simply allowing either 'http4://www.example.com/index.html' or 'http4s://www.example.com/index.html'. So, I'm personally inclined to keep the existing pattern to have separate providers. > > Besides that, I wonder if we also (only?) should consider the new JDK > httpclient api? As I'm trying to scratch my own itch, I'd opt for providing a solution with HttpComponents HttpClient v4 first. ;-) Also, it's very matured and well-accepted, comparing with the new JDK HttpClient. I'm open to a possibility in the near future for a new separate provider, possibly called 'jdkhttp' with JDK HttpClient module.
