After talking with people @ ApacheCon, there is interest in building
protocols on top of MINA.

Specifically the JAMES project is interested in porting their SMTP,
POP3 and NNTP server-side code to MINA. I was also introduced to a
contributor to the Tomcat clustering sub-project that is working on a
ASLv2-licensed JGroups-like layer that should use MINA as well (since
its NIO based). We also have the start of HTTP from John Preston.

I wrote a MINA based SMTP handler (http://hausmail.safehaus.org) that I
would love to contribute to MINA.  About a year ago I tried to get it
included in the JAMES project but the Java 5 requirement for StartTLS
support seamed to turn a lot of people off.

The code certainly isn't perfect and needs some additional work but I
think it's a good start.  I will have time this week and over the
weekend to put together something that could be included in MINA.

BTW, I love the idea of a protocol sub-module in MINA.

That'd be great! Since its a sizable body of code, it will likely be best to bring it through the incubator as well. I'd like to try to merge your work with what JAMES has, since they have a complete implementation, just BIO-based.
