A Java SDK for HCL Domino REST API

I've released an early preview of the OpenNTF Java SDK for HCL Domino REST API.

The idea is quite simple: I wanted to use the Domino REST API from Java without dealing with HTTP requests, JSON parsing and all the other plumbing every time. The SDK wraps some of the common operations, such as working with documents and lists, behind a Java API.

It is still early days. Only part of the Domino REST API is implemented, and I'm still experimenting with some parts of the API design. That's actually one of the reasons I'm publishing it now rather than waiting until everything is finished.

This is an OpenNTF project, so contributions are welcome. If you're interested in using it, I'd be particularly interested in feedback about the API design before too much of it becomes difficult to change.
