Roland 4fb0858e55 remote cleanup: include feedback from Viktor and Patrik
- re-label Client/Server to Inbound/Outbound for netty settings
  description
- move to just using exactly one class loader for all reflective
  activities of the ActorSystem, which is either the context class
  loader or the one which loaded the ActorSystem’s class; document that
  putting Akka on boot class path will not work
- be more careful with initializing the Client- and ServerBootstrap
- rename Port to DesiredPortFromConfig to discourage misuse
- write test for NettySettings
- various small fixes

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.
