Roland 0a7e5fe296 wrap up local routing
- pull some more generic stuff out of the individual routers, add
  factories which take only target lists
- add router parsing to Deployer, removing everything which is not
  strictly related to local scope, which left only few things, so move
  them to Deployer.scala and delete DeploymentConfig
- fix ConfiguredLocalRoutingSpec to use the new configuration mechanism
  and verify that configuration overrides code
- fix DeployerSpec by using (mostly) correct lookup paths and removing
  everything which was not local
- change config file layout, removing everything which is not local from
  akka-actor/.../reference.conf, putting the remote stuff into the
  akka-remote/.../reference.conf (unused as of yet); adapt comments
  according to changed functionality

h1. Akka

We believe that writing correct concurrent, fault-tolerant and scalable applications is too hard. Most of the time it's because we are using the wrong tools and the wrong level of abstraction.

Akka is here to change that.

Using the Actor Model together with Software Transactional Memory we raise the abstraction level and provide a better platform to build correct concurrent and scalable applications.

For fault-tolerance we adopt the "Let it crash":http://letitcrash.com model which have been used with great success in the telecom industry to build applications that self-heal, systems that never stop.

Actors also provide the abstraction for transparent distribution and the basis for truly scalable and fault-tolerant applications.

Akka is Open Source and available under the Apache 2 License.
