Sending POST params and why isn't DefaultHttpDataFactory not in the releases?

[imagenesis]

HttpRequest httpReq=new
DefaultHttpRequest(HttpVersion.HTTP_1_1,HttpMethod.POST,uri);
			httpReq.setHeader(HttpHeaders.Names.HOST,host);
		
httpReq.setHeader(HttpHeaders.Names.CONNECTION,HttpHeaders.Values.KEEP_ALIVE);
		
httpReq.setHeader(HttpHeaders.Names.ACCEPT_ENCODING,HttpHeaders.Values.GZIP);
			String params=ReqUtil.uri(req);
			ChannelBuffer
cb=ChannelBuffers.copiedBuffer(params,Charset.defaultCharset());
			httpReq.setHeader(HttpHeaders.Names.CONTENT_LENGTH,cb.readableBytes());
			httpReq.setContent(cb);

Does not yield a valid request. What is the correct way to send a post
request, preferably why constructing the parameters data manually as opposed
to with the DataFactory. Also, why is HttpDataFactory not included in any of
the releases?
