---------------------------------------------

Hi community,

This is a great day (althought i spent 3 hours in the strike this morning :( ...) 
as i'm proud to announce after 4 months of work that 
i'm releasing a proxy support connector for MINA 2.0-M1.

This release features :

HTTP proxy : 
- Support for NTLM authentication
- Support for Digest authentication
- Transparent support for reconnection to a http proxy that does not support connection keep alive
- Support for HTTP/1.1 requests
- Support for multi valued headers
- Configuration of prefered authentication mechanism
- Smart proxy authentication system that dynamically and automatically selects the mechanism to use

SOCKS :
- Support for SOCKS4 and SOCKS4a
- Support for SOCKS5 with support for GSSAPI authentication via Kerberos V

Moreover i added some test classes and junit testcases to test internals and 
cover most of the revelant functionnalities.

I hope this work will be usefull for the community as i put great efforts on it
I'm really excited by looking forward for your questions, comments, etc...

Regards,

> There has been enourmous demand for supporting proxy such as simple port forwarding and SOCKS.  We need to investigate what the best way is to provide an extension point for proxies.
> IoFilters are not adequate for proxies because proxies needs changes in the socket addresses (both local and remote) of IoSession.
