public class GenericProxyGenerator
extends ServiceableGenerator

This is a generic HTTP proxy, designed to handle any possible HTTP method, but with a particular bias towards WebDAV. As of now it's pretty unstable, but still it might be a good proof of concept towards a pure HTTP(++) proxy.
TODO: doesn't handle authentication properly
TODO: doesn't handle (and doubt it'll ever will) HTTP/1.1 keep-alive

           throws ProcessingException,
                  SAXException,
