+Description: Java Activation Framework implementation from Apache Geronimo
+ Apache Geronimo is an open source application server developed by the Apache
+ Software Foundation and distributed under the Apache license. Geronimo is
+ currently compatible with the Java Enterprise Edition (Java EE) 5.0
+ specification. 
+ .
+ The JavaBeans Activation Framework (JAF) extension to Java allows developers
+ to determine the type of an arbitrary piece of data, to encapsulate access to
+ it, to discover the operations available on it, and to instantiate the
+ appropriate bean to perform said operation(s). For example, if a browser
+ obtained a PNG image, JAF would help the browser to identify that stream of
+ data as a PNG image, and the browser can instantiate an object to display that
+ image.
+ .
+ Another DFSG free JAF implementation is available from the Glassfish project.
