Hi, my colleague created #1586 which was closed because of #1596 but that last one only bumped the version instead of also doing the refactoring to use the new methods. When is this refactoring planned for because we are rather anxiously waiting for this.

Hey @stijnn17, we are not planning to perform the refactoring now, but we plan the release of a new version (that works with Apache Http Client 5.5) on week 50 (from Dec 7th).

The refactoring to avoid using deprecated methods is important, but it doesn't affect the library or your integration.

Hey @stijnn17, we have release a patch v40.0.1. See also here
