AsyncHttpClient is an implementation of HTTP client functionality based on Apache Mina. It does non-blocking I/O, and shows great scalability and performance characteristic. The APIs are quite easy to use with a strong focus on concurrent programming, employing futures and completion-service like result handing. It would be a great companion piece for Geronimo to use in web apps. My 2 cents...
