You're wrong there, most are here as Lurkers and Jeff will be a 
committer before long :-)

Dunno.

I thought about a extension to the lookup() methods:

   Object lookup(ArmiHostContext hostContext, String 
publishedServiceName, AuthenticationDetails authenticationDetails)

Where AuthenticationDetails could be a number of things:

  NameAndPasswordAuthenticationDetails
  NameAndSignedTextAuthenticationDetails

Of course several levels of security are envisaged,
  * no security (as at present).
  * no auth over TLS
  * Full auth over TLS.
  * Auth over unsecure
