+/**
+ * A {@link SpanReceiver} that passes Spans to htraced via REST. Implementation minimizes
+ * dependencies and aims for small footprint since this client will be the guest of another,
+ * the process traced.
+ * 
+ * <p>Logs via commons-logging. Uses jetty client. Jetty has its own logging (TODO: connect
+ * jetty logging to commons-logging, see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6807
+ * and http://blogs.bytecode.com.au/glen/2005/06/21/getting-your-logging-working-in-jetty.html).
+ *
+ * <p>This client depends on the REST defined in <code>rest.go</code> in the htraced REST server.
+ * For example, a <code>GET</code> on <code>/serverInfo</code> returns the htraced server info.
+ * 
+ * <p>Create an instance by doing:
+ * <code>SpanReceiver receiver = new HTracedRESTReceiver(conf);</code> where conf is an instance
+ * of {@link HTraceConfiguration}. See the public keys defined below for we will look for in the
+ * configuration.  For example, {@link #HTRACE_REST_CLIENT_HOSTNAME} and
+ * {@link #HTRACE_REST_CLIENT_PORT}.
+ * Then call <code>receiver.receiveSpan(Span);</code> to send spans to an htraced instance.
+ * This method returns immediately. It sends the spans in background.
+ * 
+ * <p>TODO: How to be more dependent on rest.go so we break if it changes?
+ * TODO: Add tests. Add start/stop htraced.
+ * TODO: Shading works?
+ * TODO: Add lazy start; don't start background thread till a span gets queued.
+ * TODO: Add some metrics; how many times we've run, how many spans and what size we've sent.
