Description: 
        
        A comprehensive HTTP client library, ``httplib2`` supports many features left out of other HTTP libraries.
        
        **HTTP and HTTPS**
          HTTPS support is only available if the socket module was compiled with SSL support. 
         
        
        **Keep-Alive**
          Supports HTTP 1.1 Keep-Alive, keeping the socket open and performing multiple requests over the same connection if possible. 
        
        
        **Authentication**
          The following three types of HTTP Authentication are supported. These can be used over both HTTP and HTTPS.
        
          * Digest
          * Basic
          * WSSE
        
        **Caching**
          The module can optionally operate with a private cache that understands the Cache-Control: 
          header and uses both the ETag and Last-Modified cache validators. Both file system
          and memcached based caches are supported.
        
        
        **All Methods**
          The module can handle any HTTP request method, not just GET and POST.
        
        
        **Redirects**
          Automatically follows 3XX redirects on GETs.
        
        
        **Compression**
          Handles both 'deflate' and 'gzip' types of compression.
        
        
        **Lost update support**
          Automatically adds back ETags into PUT requests to resources we have already cached. This implements Section 3.2 of Detecting the Lost Update Problem Using Unreserved Checkout
        
        
        **Unit Tested**
          A large and growing set of unit tests.
