Motivation: - example/pom.xml has quite a bit of duplication. - We expect that we depend on npn-boot in more than one module in the near future. (e.g. handler, codec-http, and codec-http2) Modification: - Deduplicate the profiles in example/pom.xml - Move the build configuration related with npn-boot to the parent pom. - Add run-example.sh that helps a user launch an example easily Result: - Cleaner build files - Easier to add a new example - Easier to launch an example - Easier to run the tests that relies on npn-boot in the future

How to build
For the detailed information about building and developing Netty, please visit the developer guide. This page only gives very basic information.
You require the following to build Netty:
- Latest stable Oracle JDK 7
- Latest stable Apache Maven
Note that this is build-time requirement. JDK 5 (for 3.x) or 6 (for 4.0+) is enough to run your Netty-based application.
Branches to look
The 'master' branch is where the development of the latest major version lives on. The development of all other major versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to its major version number. For example, the development of 3.x and 4.x resides in the branch '3' and the branch '4' respectively.
