Does Scrapy work with HTTP proxies?
-----------------------------------
No. support for HTTP proxies is not currently implemented in Scrapy, but it
will be in the future. For more information about this, follow `this ticket
<http://dev.scrapy.org/ticket/71>`_. Setting the ``http_proxy`` environment
variable won't work because Twisted (the library used by Scrapy to download
pages) doesn't support it. See `this Twisted ticket
<http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/2714>`_ for more info.
