Hello Christoffer,

Just wondering if you intend to copy this project to GitHub, or perhaps you're just going to abandon it?

I'm actually using naga in a commercial product (an Android app), and even though I have downloaded the source I'd feel more secure if I knew you still were "standing behind it".

naga is just right for me, it contains the functionality I need, and not tons of other stuff that I don't need. For example, I briefly considered Netty, but that would be overkill for my usage.

Just curious - do you use it yourself?

Thanks for making naga available.

Yours,
Rennie Petersen

Umm, it’s actually already there: https://github.com/lerno/naga

I’m using the library myself, and it’s also been used by my business partner in some of his projects. Unfortunately none of them are currently high load environments (meaning 5000+ connections), but it’s based off older code which did indeed effortlessly sustain that many simultaneous connections.

That said, if it’s not tested it’s not sure to work, so I can’t make guarantees for high load (yet). 

I’ll always fix any bugs I’m informed of, but aside from the request for full SSL handling (which I’ve decided *not* to complete precisely because I have no own project that will use it and thus I can’t be sure that it works sufficiently well) I don’t think there are any known issues right now.

OK, great, thank you for replying.

> Umm, it’s actually already there ...

That's embarrasing, but I did a quick search for "naga" on GitHub and your project wasn't on the first page ...

Not really relevant for me, my Android app uses a maximum of 1 (one) connection. :-)

Incidentally, there's an old thread on Stack Overflow that implies that there can be problems with NIO on older versions of Android.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11007879/client-server-application-for-android-with-netty-integration

But most of the devices my app runs on are running Android 2.3, and I haven't experienced any problems. (I buy old used telephones on the Danish equivalent of eBay and install my app and resell them to my customers, believe it or not.)

Do you have any information about if this is really a problem? Or maybe it's not relevant when I only have one connection?

Thanks again for making naga available, and for your commitment of fixing bugs, that is very good.

Yours,
Rennie
