+RightScale::HttpConnection
+    by RightScale, Inc.
+    www.RightScale.com 
+
+== DESCRIPTION:
+
+Rightscale::HttpConnection is a robust HTTP/S library.  It implements a retry
+algorithm for low-level network errors.
+
+== FEATURES:
+
+- provides put/get streaming
+- does configurable retries on connect and read timeouts, DNS failures, etc.
+- HTTPS certificate checking
+  
+== SYNOPSIS:
+
+
+== REQUIREMENTS:
+
+- 2/11/08: If you use RightScale::HttpConnection in conjunction with attachment_fu, the
+  HttpConnection gem must be included (using the require statement) AFTER
+  attachment_fu.  
+  This is due to a conflict between the HttpConnection gem and another
+  gem required by attachment_fu.
+
+
+
+== INSTALL:
+
+sudo gem install right_http_connection

+HttpConnection maintains a persistent HTTP connection to a remote
+server.  Each instance maintains its own unique connection to the
+HTTP server.  HttpConnection makes a best effort to receive a proper
+HTTP response from the server, although it does not guarantee that
+this response contains a HTTP Success code.
+
+On low-level errors (TCP/IP errors) HttpConnection invokes a reconnect
+and retry algorithm.  Note that although each HttpConnection object
+has its own connection to the HTTP server, error handling is shared
+across all connections to a server.  For example, if there are three
+connections to www.somehttpserver.com, a timeout error on one of those
+connections will cause all three connections to break and reconnect.
+A connection will not break and reconnect, however, unless a request
+becomes active on it within a certain amount of time after the error
+(as specified by HTTP_CONNECTION_RETRY_DELAY).  An idle connection will not
+break even if other connections to the same server experience errors.
+
+A HttpConnection will retry a request a certain number of times (as
+defined by HTTP_CONNNECTION_RETRY_COUNT).  If all the retries fail,
+an exception is thrown and all HttpConnections associated with a
+server enter a probationary period defined by HTTP_CONNECTION_RETRY_DELAY.
+If the user makes a new request subsequent to entering probation,
+the request will fail immediately with the same exception thrown
+on probation entry.  This is so that if the HTTP server has gone
+down, not every subsequent request must wait for a connect timeout
+before failing.  After the probation period expires, the internal
+state of the HttpConnection is reset and subsequent requests have
+the full number of potential reconnects and retries available to
+them.
