| Apache Sling API |
| |
| The Sling API defines an extension to the Servlet API 2.4 to |
| provide access to content and unified access to request |
| parameters hiding the differences between the different methods |
| of transferring parameters from client to server. Note that the |
| Sling API bundle does not include the Servlet API but instead |
| requires the API to be provided by the Servlet container in |
| which the Sling framework is running or by another bundle. |

| ========== |
| Apache Sling is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), |
| sponsored by the Apache Jackrabbit PMC. Incubation is required of all newly accepted |
| projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, |
| and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other |
| successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of |
| the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet |
| to be fully endorsed by the ASF. |
