Hi Alan,

I'm very much interested in a project like this, but I fear that it
might be out of scope for the Shiro project itself:  Shiro's mission
is to be a development framework that is used to create applications -
if we build and distribute full-fledged applications using Shiro, it
feels like we've stepped beyond the bounds of our mission statement.

Now, what I would think appropriate is that any code that is written
in the course of building such a project that is thought to be
re-usable for other projects - that could very easily roll back into
Shiro so others can benefit from it (and so the respective project(s)
don't need to maintain it).

Does that make sense?  I think it's a great idea, but probably better
suited to it's own project space (maybe an Incubator or GitHub
project?).

My .02,

Les
