[Fedora-suds-list] Persistent connections - anyone else interested / suggest howto / working on it?

[Jeff Ortel]

Oops!  I don't have a windows environment to test this but I should have done a little 
more before committing this :/

The module named "ntlm.py" in suds shadows the import of the ntlm module from python-ntlm 
package.  So, I've fixed by moving the WindowsHttpAuthenticated class to the https.py 
module in suds.  Did a quick run through and at least now it does not barf.

Documentation updated.

I hope so.
