Istvan Toth commented on HTTPCLIENT-1625:
-----------------------------------------
I have opened the PR for master:
https://github.com/apache/httpcomponents-client/pull/577
It fails the japicmp check, but I don't see why HttpAuthenticator would be
considered a public API.

> The current implementation does not reflect the way GSS-API-based
> authentication should be done. It has several design flaws.
> This is an umbrella task for:
> 1. Deprecate all old classes
> 2. Investigate how it has to be plugged into HttpClient
> 3. Reimplement from scratch
> 4. Thoroughly test all new stuff
> 5. Rewrite documentation
> Design notes are canonically available under:
> https://wiki.apache.org/HttpComponents/IssueTracking/HTTPCLIENT-1625
