I actually did that already because I was up to patch the code
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/labs/droids/trunk/src/core/java/org/apache/http/norobots/

In the end I created a helper class (UrlHelper) and a method
(findRobotsUrl) which would better go into the above package. 

I will write now more about extending the default droid jar with custom
components and how to use it in a java app. After this I will
concentrate to create a roadmap.

Thanks for your interest and fast reply.
