###### ORIGINAL SUBMISSION DETAILS ######

System Group Name:
-----------------
  gumdrop


Full Name:
----------
  gumdrop
  

Type:
-----
  Official GNU software


License:
-------- 
  GNU General Public License V2 or later

Description:
------------
  gumdrop is a multipurpose Java server using asynchronous I/O. It provides a
servlet container implementing most of the servlet 1.4 specification.
Because the number of threads in the gumdrop servlet container is independent
of the number of concurrent connections, it can scale much better than
traditional Java web servers like Tomcat. It also avoids dependency on large,
slow libraries and is therefore quite fast.
Source code can be found at http://bluezoo.org/gumdrop.tar.gz


Other Software Required:
------------------------
  Requires GNU inetlib and the JavaMail and servlet APIs (available from the
GNU classpathx project).
gumdrop currently requires Java 2. At the moment work is under way to provide
enough support for the thread management and asynchronous I/O APIs in GNU
classpath and gcj to run gumdrop, and to provide enough Java 5 support to
develop crypto support (TLS). At the current time, though, there are still too
many class library bugs in GNU classpath to run gumdrop out of the box.
gumdrop is also intended to serve as a test for enterprise-level functionality
in GNU Java projects.
