Jonas Bonér e6fa55b3a8 - Changed implementation of Actor.actorOf to work in the the new world of cluster.ref, cluster.use and cluster.store.
- Changed semantics of replica config. Default replicas is now 0. Replica 1 means one copy of the actor is instantiated on another node.
- Actor.remote.actorFor/Actor.remote.register is now separated and orthogonal from cluster implementation.
- cluster.ref now creates and instantiates its replicas automatically, e.g. it can be created first and will then set up what it needs.
- Added logging everywhere, better warning messages etc.
- Each node now fetches the whole deployment configuration from the cluster on boot.
- Added some config options to cluster

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.
