Motivaion: The HttpHeaders and DefaultHttpHeaders have methods deprecated due to being removed in future releases, but no replacement method to use in the current release. The deprecation policy should not be so aggressive as to not provide any non-deprecated method to use. Modifications: - Remove deprecated annotations and javadocs from methods which are the best we can do in terms of matching the master's api for 4.1 Result: There should be non-deprecated methods available for HttpHeaders in 4.1.

How to build
For the detailed information about building and developing Netty, please visit the developer guide. This page only gives very basic information.
You require the following to build Netty:
- Latest stable Oracle JDK 7
- Latest stable Apache Maven
- If you are on Linux, you need additional development packages installed on your system, because you'll build the native transport.
Note that this is build-time requirement. JDK 5 (for 3.x) or 6 (for 4.0+) is enough to run your Netty-based application.
Branches to look
The 'master' branch is where the development of the latest major version lives on. The development of all other versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to <majorVersion>.<minorVersion>. For example, the development of 3.9 and 4.0 resides in the branch '3.9' and the branch '4.0' respectively.
