Hi all,

I more or less finished the rewrite of droids. It is now completely
Spring driven, meaning all configuration files are united in 

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/labs/droids/trunk/src/core/java/org/apache/droids/

- droids-core-context.xml
- droids-core-factories-context.xml

I have chosen to split the content into this two files to demonstrate
how to extend droids with your own configuration files. You will find
following comment in the core-context configuration:
<!-- 
     Using your own context
    +++++++++++++++++++++++++ 
    The easiest way is to 
    a) create a droids-your-context.xml 
    b) add:
       <import resource="classpath:/org/apache/droids/droids-core-context.xml"/>
    c) implement your own beans which will override the imported ones
    d) Call the ant target like:
       ant droids.crawl -Ddroids.spring.context=PATH/droids-your-context.xml
 -->

The other change is that the default crawler is using thread pooling for
the different queue links. 

The next steps are:
- more testing regarding the thread pooling (will do this the next
weeks)
- integrating norbert [1] 
- documentation
- adding osgi support via spring 

As soon as I add norbert and documentation to droids, I will present
Droids to HttpComponents and see if they are still interest in giving
droids a new home.
