             Summary: Support the PLAIN (and/or other) authentication method in the proton-j messenger
                 Key: PROTON-421
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-421
             Project: Qpid Proton
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: proton-j
    Affects Versions: 0.5
         Environment: all
            Reporter: Jonathan Albrecht
