I've committed an initial implementation (in need of refinement) of the 
connector spec.  Please comment further on the committed codebase.  My 
deployment implementation is based on that in Gianny's patch, many thanks for 
providing a guide through the deployment system!

Description:
This is the final proposal for the Connection Management section of the JCA 
specifications. It is a "clean" version of GERONIMO-90 + a minimalist deployer 
which allows to test such an implementation within a running server.

When I write "clean", it is evident that some works still need to be done, 
however based on the size of the code-base - 30 classes - it should be great to 
reflect seriously on this proposal.

The content by package is:

*********************************************************
org.apache.geronimo.connector.connection:
*********************************************************
The ConnectionManager spi interface has been implemented and delegates the 
allocation of connection handles to a pool of ManagedConnection. By now, the 
ConnectionManager is really simple: it delegates directly to the pool. However, 
one needs to hook-in the Transaction and Security services in the 
allocateConnection method.

*********************************************************
org.apache.geronimo.connector.connection.partition:
*********************************************************
The specifications do not define how connection pooling should be implemented. 
However, some non-prescriptive guidelines have been provided. One of them is to 
partition this pool. This is basically what I have decided to implement: The 
pool is partition on a per-ManagedConnectionFactory basis. By now, it is 
further partitioned on an idle, active, factory, destroy basis. The general 
idea of this design is to define distinct set of behaviors depending on the 
kind of partition. 

Examples: 
The factory partition is in charge of creating/allocating new connection 
handles. When its allocateConnection method is called, it decides if a new 
ManagedConnection should be created or if an existing one can be re-used. 
The XA partition (to be implemented) is in charge of creating/allocating new 
transacted connection handles. When its allocateConnection is called, it 
enlists the ManagedConnection with our TM and then gets a connection handle 
from this enlisted ManagedConnection. 

Inter-partition events can be propagated via an AWT like event model. This 
mechanism is used for example by the factory partition: It monitors the idle 
and destroy partitions in order to decide how to serve a new allocation 
request. More accurately, if a ManagedConnection is added to the idle 
partition, then a permit to try a matchManagedConnection is added. If a 
ManagedConnection is added to the destroy partition, then a permit to create a 
new ManagedConnection is added. 

*********************************************************
org.apache.geronimo.connector.connection.recycler:
*********************************************************
Partitions may be recycled. For instance, if a ManagedConnection seats idle too 
long time, then this ManagedConnection may be eligible for recycling (destroy 
in the case of idle ManagedConnection).


*********************************************************
org.apache.geronimo.connector.connection.logging:
*********************************************************
The inner workings of ManagedConnectionFactory and ManagedConnection can be 
tracked via a PrintWriter. LoggerFactory defines the contract to obtain a 
PrintWriter factory backed by various output streams. 

*********************************************************
org.apache.geronimo.connector.deploy:
*********************************************************
A minimalist deployer for the outbound-resourceadapter nodes is implemented.
