the following are some main feature enhancement.
-

Link convertion.

the following are some features that I'm considering to add in 2.0
-
Live library / module update. have to check what open source solution is available.
-
Integrate with a Job Scheuler. providing interface for Job Scheduling services. an ideal candidate is

[not likely ] Integration with a mail server for email messaging. Ideal candidate is Apache James.

Allow integrate / make use of lower level infrastructure. e.g. connection pool of application server,
-
Provide a center point for obtaining services from the lower level infrastructure. .eg. JNDI factory
-
make it easy for users to disable and remove (not install) certain services. Provide options for using JHttp for 'wrapping' an external services, conditionally use it, not to use it etc.
