Seeing that David Jecks has untertaken the buildsystem refactor
(excellent work, David!), I don't see the need for the async component
to be in a sandbox any more. There are a couple of reasons why I would
really prefer trunk (after having thought about it for a little
while):
- being apart from the rest of Aries, the sandbox is less visible
- the sandbox doesn't have Hudson builds, so no continuous integration
- since one of the goals of Aries is to collaborate on components that
might turn into OSGi Specifications I think that doing this
collaboration in a clearly visible place, like trunk is best.

So... if there are no objections to this I'll add an 'async' module to
trunk over the coming few days.

Best regards,

David
