[proposal] Cactus new vision

[Vincent Massol <vm...@pivolis.com>]

Hi,

As we've released cactus 1.5, we're now ready to tackle the new Cactus.
Here's the vision I have for Cactus (see attached image):

- To be the solution to run server side test cases for any container (be
it a servlet container, an ejb one, an EAI server, an IDE, etc).

In order to achieve this, I'll be proposing soon the revised cactus
architecture. Namely, it means opening the Cactus framework with 2 SPIs:

- one for protocol support. Cactus currently supports HTTP only. We need
to support others like RMI/IIOP, JMS, etc.

- one for redirectors/specific test cases. Cactus currently offers
Servlet, Filter and JSP support, all working on the HTTP protocol
support.

Comments? :-)

Thanks
-Vincent
