Roland e5bd8b5f88 make remote supervision and path continuation work
- add supervisor to remote USE message
- make remoteDaemon a VirtualPathContainer like
  LocalActorRefProvider.tempContainer (i.e. synchonous with CHM-based
  child lookup), scrap remoteDaemonSupervisor and rename remoteDaemon to
  “/remote” to match the plans in the docs
- comment out the remote deployment configuration section, to be done
  when Henrik is finished with RoutedActorRef work
- for now only “remote.nodes = ["sys@host:port"]” is looked at, i.e. if
  at least one is present, the first one is used to determine where to
  deploy the currently created child (routers will do the scaling-out
  component) [rest is commented out]
- multi-jvm tests not yet re-enabled (need to be adapted), but all other
  tests are GREEN (at least on my machine)

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.
