Back on topic, one thing that is important is that it is consistent
with the rest of the project. MINA seems almost like a little island
within Directory at the moment. It shouldn't go one direction that the
rest of the project isn't going to take.
It looks crystal clear to me that MINA goes way beyond Directory and is
going into its own direction. Directory kind of served as an incubator
exactly the way Tomcat did for Ant or Digester, or Struts did for
commons-validator, etc...
There's nothing bad from that, it is a very good thing as it helps make
it more robust due to a wider audience as MINA is bound to be integrated
with just about anything that requires such a communication framework.
